Welcome to Robins Class
Spring Term 2
We have continued to learn about ‘Traditional Tales’ this term. We have enjoyed celebrating pancake Day by making and eating pancakes. We got to choose our own toppings, delicious!
In our design and technology sessions we have designed and made paper bag puppets.
We have learned about the Easter story, made Easter cards and been on an Easter egg hunt.
Spring Term 1
The Robins have had an incredibly busy start to the spring term. Our topic is ‘Traditional Tales’ and we have enjoyed stories such as Little Red Riding Hood, Hansel and Gretel and many more. During our Fairy-tale Emergency Days, we created new chairs for baby bear, made The Three Bears some gooey sticky porridge and made bridges for the three Billy Goats Gruff. We also investigated floating and sinking by making the Gingerbread man a boat to cross the river and found new ways for Rapunzel to escape her tower.
We have been out and about in our geography sessions learning about trails and routes and looking at different kinds of maps both street view and aerial. We also used Google Earth and learned about the 7 continents. We would like to thank all the parents who accompanied us on our walk around Holbeach.
We also enjoyed celebrating Chinese New Year. We made Chinese lanterns and lucky envelopes, tasted Chinese flavours and learned the story of how the animals had a race to determine the order of the zodiac.
Autumn Term 2
The Robins have been busy again this term. We have learnt about and celebrated Diwali, bonfire night and Remembrance Day.
We have learnt about materials and found objects around the classroom made from those materials. We looked at household objects from the past and present and were encouraged to explain why we thought they might be from the past.
We practised the skills of chopping and grating and then used these skills to make our own coleslaw.
We enjoyed learning about advent and the Christmas story. We took part in the school nativity, enjoyed Christmas dinner and especially Polar Express party day.
Autumn Term 1
Our first topic area this term has been ‘Me and my World’. The Robins have read books about families such as ‘Owl Babies’ and ‘Can’t you sleep little Bear?’. We have enjoyed learning both inside and outside the classroom, creating, imagining, balancing, talking, and concentrating.
We have also been learning about autumn and how some leaves change colour and fall off the trees. We have then used autumn objects to learn through our play.
