Another fabulous week here in Dosbarth Chepstow celebrating all things Autumn and Harvest. We listened to the story “The little red hen” and we made hedgehog bread following rules and using the scissors safely to make snips for his spikes. We have also been growing our own cress which in our literacy lesson we later talked about instructions. We have also been practising our Harvest song to perform to the rest of the school in our Harvest assembly.

This week we have started to learn about Harvest. We have been out in the school grounds looking for fruits and vegetables to harvest ourselves, we found apples, pears, onions and courgettes. We explored these and used some for printing and tasting. We ended the week by making apple crumble using the apples we had collected in the school grounds.

This week in our outdoor learning we continued our use of our senses, and we went on an autumn scavenger hunt observing the signs of Autumn. In our theme work we started to look at basic maps. We looked at familiar places observing photos of our outside area. We organised the photos to create a simple map to identify how we got to the meadow.

What a fabulous week we have had here in Dosbarth Chepstow as part of our Science week! We have been showing curiosity and developing our observation skills.

Our main inquiry was focused on changes. Our I wonder… (Tybed …) question was “How does it change?” We made biscuits observing how the ingredients looked at the beginning of our cooking lesson and the changes made when cooked. Our final experiment was observing how pinecones can help us to identify the weather. We learnt that when we wet a pinecone it will close up and when it is warm it will open up to show its spikes.

This week we held a show and tell session sharing our favourite objects. Our focus this week has been 'All about me'. In literacy we read the story, Do you like? We have been learning how to be good listeners by asking each other the question: Do you like…? We could recall this to the group. We recorded our friends' responses to create our own class book. We started our expressive arts focus for the month using the medium of paint and learning our primary colours. We have been looking at the work of Wassily Kandinsky, using circles to experiment with circular marks.

We have had a fantastic first week here in Dosbarth Chepstow. We have started to settle into our new classrooms by meeting our new friends and exploring the new environment. We sang lots of songs and read lots of stories about rules and families. We created a family portrait too.
