This week in Otters Class we found a chrysalis in our outside garden which prompted lots of questions of what could be inside. We have explored lots of Autumnal objects from acorns and conkers to pumpkins and squash and used them to make repeating patterns in our maths work. We have used peg boards to strengthen our fine motor skills and continuing with our topic focus this week we have looked at what a family tree is and who is in our family. Well done Otters

Otters have had another fantastic week. They have settled into our daily routines and are enjoying all the different activities. We started our first group of sounds this week too - m, a, s and d. To support your child further, see if you can spot anything that starts with these sounds together. You could also practise writing them, the letter formation rhymes are on our class page under phonics and reading.

Year 1 & 2 travelled back in time today to meet Mrs Grimm, a Victorian teacher and Emerald Pity the housemaid. We learned alot about what is was like to be a Victorian child. The teachers were very strict - not like Mrs B! We acted out some of the jobs children had, like working in the coal mines or working as servants for Sir Warmly. This has inspired us to find out much more...

It's been a week of sharing our favourite activities together. Otters were asked what they wanted to do for our last week together and they came up with some great ideas: painting, making playdough, sharing their learning journals, making their own bags, creating dinosaur worlds, magic message painting, having a picnic and making their own snack. We’ve had great fun!
