A Visit from the Owls- 23rd November 2023
Today we had a visit from the owls we learnt lots of different owl facts. We closed our eyes to see if we could hear the owls flying around. They fly so silently. We watched them 'swooping' as they flew around our hall. We even had the chance to hold the owls too!!
Map Making: Rosie’s Walk- 12th November 2023
We have shared the story of 'Rosie's Walk' thinking about her journey around the farm. We have talked about what we use a map for and today we are looking carefully to identify some features we can see on the map. We then thought about the journey Rosie went on and the route she took in the story and followed some directions given to take Rosie around the farm on her journey. We created our own maps of her journey.
Making Bread: Following instructions –9th November 2023

We then shared some instructions of how to make bread and thought about the order we needed to make the bread in using sequential language such as first, next, after that and finally. We left the dough and observed what happened to it over time. We then baked the dough and observed how it had changed. We used our senses to look carefully at the bread and smelt the fresh bread and touched the warm bread and then got to taste it!
