We started our unit of work by trying to work out how these pieces fitted together and what they represented... They weren't quite there at the start but they certainly could by the end of the unit! Well done VG class for being able to name the countries, the capital cities and many physical and human features of the UK!

Playing the glockenspiel to accompany the song...

AUTUMN TERM, 2021

Art - Drawing

 

Design Technology - Leavers and Linkages

The children designed a story book with an animal as the main character for a Reception/Year 1 age child. Each story had a message. The children considered the language they were using and its appeal as well as learned how to make a lever that would be durable. The jobs were divided among the children and they worked together to publish it. After they had finished they evaluated their books. And finally... they shared them with their users - the Reception/Year 1 children! The children loved them!
