The children dance fast and slowly to the rhythm to the music using the pom poms. They moved their bodies around the room and then talked about their own body and their own heart beats.

Cutting vegetables for George the Hamster
The children worked together to cut snack for George the hamster they sliced a variety of fruit and vegetables discussing likes and dislikes and tasting as they cut segments off. They also talked about textures of the food and that it is healthy for us.
In forest school the children in yellow group talked about bonfire night and what colour fireworks they seen and heard. Next the children worked together to create a large Firework scene using various bottles these included spray bottles, push bottles and squeeze bottles with watered down powder paint to create large marks. During this when the children were creating the marks they made noises i.e. “bang”, “crash”, “boom” to mimic the fireworks they had heard the night before. At the end the children took turns jumping in the builders tray to make there marks splatter and increase in size.
The children danced to sticky kids and copied actions and words to songs. They enjoyed number songs and repeated numbers in sequence.
The children took part in filling up a scarecrow they discussed how we could make its face and whether it should be a boy or a girl. The children then named her Amelia and said she is now part of the yellow group.
The children collected some fruit from the trees outside in the snug garden they collected raspberries, Pears and leaves as a group whilst singing songs about fruit and talking about harvest festival.
The children explored light and dark using the torches underneath the table. They used simple ict by turning the torches on and off without support. The children then made marks on the roof of the table.
The children also discussed what they could and couldn’t see on their peers faces such as eyes nose and mouth.
One child lay on her back and said, “Night time day time”. Whilst turning the torch on and off again repeatedly.
