We have had a fun Autumn Term! We were excited to help Mr Ilott build our new sandpit and rock pit and assist him with repairing the pirate ship! We are getting more independent when getting ready for PE lessons and have loved playing with beanbags, balls and cones in the big hall. We look forward to when it is our turn to visit the library each week and have loved sharing books with our families at home.

Each week we have taken a trip to our forest area and have been exploring the field. We have learnt a lot about autumn and harvest. Miss Barber brought in some different pumpkins and gourds, and we cut them open and scooped out the insides! We all learnt to sing ‘Big, red, combine harvester’ and learnt some actions to go with the words.

Our focus books have taught us about cities, different occupations, poetry, travelling and much more. We have learnt many new and exciting words and what they mean such as ‘murmur’, ‘grumble’, ‘neighbourhood’, ‘impossible’, ‘trust’, ‘paramedics’ and ‘framed’ to name a few.

We are starting to tell our own stories and an adult will scribe it for us. We love having our stories read to the class.

In the second half term we will be learning to sing some songs, dance and act in preparation for our nativity play!
