Last week we continued our focus on Bonfire Night, using the children’s first-hand experiences from the previous weekend to extend their learning.
During topic we also spent time learning and talking about Remembrance Day. The children showed great maturity on Friday morning in joining a whole school two-minute silence. Our silence in Reception was accompanied by a beautiful short film by the bbc: https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=jeR5JWaIcpo. The children have shown good understanding of the importance of the day.
Discover & Do, as always, has been a time of exploration and the children have used their own curiosities in lots of areas of the classroom to extend their learning.
