Violet Class / Nursery and Reception

Welcome to Violet Class.

Autumn Term 1 2024

We are learning the whole school 'Rainbow Pledges' and finding out how they can help us to learn and manage our behaviour... We are striving to be the best we can be! 

Amazing Me! Amazing You! 

Autumn 1 Knowledge Organiser 

We are learning about ourselves and how we are all special and unique. We are listening to the story Stickman and talking about families. 

We are learning about our bodies, what we use different parts of our bodies for and exploring different ways of moving/using them. 

We are learning about what jobs people do and painted pictures. We thought hard about the colours we were choosing to represent uniforms that people wear. We listened to the story Clothesline Clues to Jobs People Do  to support our learning and write about all the jobs we learnt about in the story.  

We celebrated Harvest by learning about how the farmers in 'Our Community' work together to provide food for us. We shared our learning and art work (based on the story Oliver's Milkshake) in the church during our Harvest Festival Service.

Autumn 2 Knowledge Organiser

We are learning about Guy Fawkes and Bonfire Night. In PE we explored firework patterns, shapes and sounds using coloured material and ribbons. 

We are learning all about the Hindu Festival of lights 'Diwali'. We made beautiful and colourful Rangoli Patterns. We have a home corner decorated with colourful lanterns and Diya lamps and listened to the story Rama and Sita. 

 

We are learning about the Season Autumn. We used paints and leaves to make leaf shapes and wrote about the changes we see in the Autumn time. 

We have been very busy practicing our Christmas Nativity. We performed several performances to the rest of the school, Pre-school and our families. Our favourite thing was dressing up in our costumes!

To celebrate the end of term we had a Christmas party, we wore our Christmas jumpers and enjoyed some delicious Christmas Lunch cooked by the chef and listened to Christmas songs.

Winter

We have started to  talk about the season Winter. We have been observing how the outside environment has changed, what the weather is like and what sort of clothes and materials we are wearing to keep warm. 

We listened to the story Jack Frost talking about the story setting, characters and events.  We looked carefully at the snowy, frosty winter scenes in the pictures and then used white chalks, glitter and snowflake sequins to create our own 'Winter scenes'  

Moving on from Winter we are starting to learn about different types of weather. 

Rain

We have been learning how water droplets join together, they get bigger and bigger, the cloud gets heavier and heavier, the cloud bursts and then it rains. The children have talked about the types of clothing they wear when it rains and how it needs to be waterproof so they can stay dry.

We have been finding out all the different things we need water for and how important it is; drinking, washing our clothes, bathing and how it helps plants and flowers to grow. The children loved sharing that their favourite thing to do in the rain is splashing in big puddles!

Sun

The children have learning about the sun. They have learnt that the sun is a star. It gives out heat and light and makes life possible on earth. The heat and light from the sun is felt and seen on earth. The sun is much bigger than earth and is part of the Solar System. They listened to the song The Solar System on YouTube and loved it! 

We discussed  how to be safe in the sun and listened to lots of 'sun' stories. 

Spring 2

Knowledge Organiser Spring 2 

We have been learning about Spring this half term. We have used our senses to see if Spring has sprung! We shared a story called 'Hello Spring' 

We explored the environment around us to look for changes in the environment as we move from Winter to Spring. The children notices leaves starting to come back onto trees, they looked for Spring flowers such as daffodils and blossom on trees. They heard birds singing, smelt fresh air and felt the warmth of the sun on their faces. 

They have created daffodil pictures focusing on adding lots of detail. 

We finish this half term listening to the Easter story and making an Easter Garden. We celebrate the end of term with an Easter Service in the church.
