What we have been doing in Parrots
Autumn 1 - It is Fantastic to be me
We have loved our first Quest! The children talked about who was in their family and drew family trees. We also thought about our features and drew self-portraits. We also talked about different types of home and shared what our homes are like as well as thinking about the local area and what is close to our home. Finally we looked further afield and developed our understanding of different countries around the world and the links we had to them.
Autumn 2 Quest: Let's Celebrate!
We have learned about lots of different celebrations this half term as well as the season of Autumn. We though about the food that might be eaten; clothes worn and activities that form part of different celebrations. First, we learned about Diwali: we made rangoli patterns and Diya lamps. Then we learned about Bonfire night and lots of us had been to firework displays out of school! We also learned about Remembrance Day and why is is important as well as using our crafting skills to make poppies. We thought about birthdays and how we like to celebrate. Finally, we learned about Christmas and prepared a Nativity to perform to our peers and parents.
