This week we added the word "environment" to our vocabulary tree. We know this means the world around us. We discussed our school environment and that we have our classroom environment and also our woodland environment in our nature area.
We began talking about environments that might be further away such as deserts and rainforests. We will continue to learn about this word over the next few weeks and use it when we are learning.

This week we have been learning about number four. Number four number block has been helping us.
Number four has been changing the order of his blocks and we have been describing what we can see. We said "I know there are four because I can see two and two" and "I know there are four because three and one more make four." We have also been describing where the blocks were placed on the number block, and have followed instructions to create dot patterns of the number block. We used words including "on top" "underneath" and "next to." We also continued to subitise numbers to three. We are learning that even though dots are in different places, there are still the same amount if you don't add any or take any away. We are getting quicker subitising with our flash cards! This week our learning has been about Autumn. We have taken part in lots of different Autumn activities including matching items of clothing to weather pictures and explaining why we would wear those items, making Autumn wreaths and Autumn monsters in the creative area, matching pictures to the initial sound cards and sculpting dough to create hedgehogs!
On Welly Walk we went on a scavenger hunt! We collected green, yellow, orange and brown leaves and then matched them to the correct colour card. We started to describe some of the words and said some were "soft" "crunchy" and "crispy." We also collected some other items including sycamore seeds, alder seeds, feathers, twigs and acorns. We brought them back to our classroom to add to our autumn area. |
