Week of 17th September 2012

This week, weather permitting we will be going to the school orchard to pick apples, starting our theme of apples and harvest. When we have picked and stored them we will be planning with the children how they would like to cook them.
We will be recording the activity for our learning journey through pictures and photographs, and arts and crafts.@Home
We will be using the information from the blog question and what the children choose to make a simple graph.
We will also be finishing off any lighthouse activities.

Communication and language (listening and attention)
The lighthouse keeper stories by Rhonda and David Armitage, listening to stories with increasing attention and recall. Starting to look at harvest books.

Physical development
Movement and handling, uses one handed tools e.g. Scissors to snip and knives to make sandwiches.
Lots of different ways to enjoy threading.

@Home: LOOK!!!!
Whats your favourite way to eat an apple? (whole, crumble, pie, juice etc.) A star to fill in your answer is in your pigeon hole.

  1. I like to eat my apple peeled, cored and cut up, naturally raw as it falls from the tree ;-)
