Autumn and Bears

Hello everyone,

Last week we had a fantastic week celebrating harvest and starting to talk about Autumn. We made our own tractors using different sized shapes. These were on display in the school hall for Harvest. They will be back on display in our classroom this week. We went on an Autumn walk around the school grounds and found lots of lovely leaves, pine cones etc. We talked about the changes and what we could see. At snack time we talked about where our food comes from. We have had a lovely time playing with the farm , tractors and farm animals. 

For the next couple of weeks we will continue to talk about Autumn along with Bears. The children were really interested in We're going on a bear hunt. For the next couple of week we will be sharing different bears stories and songs along with lots of different bear activities. We will be talking about sizes and colours.
