Our learning
Our learning:
• We really enjoyed learning about London and reading our first text Katie in London.
• We like doing lots of practical learning in groups and pairs.
• We have enjoyed learning our new harvest songs ready for the harvest festival.
• In Maths we have been learning about Place Value
• In Science we are looking at everyday materials and the children have loved making songs about them. They have really loved becoming Scientific Investigators, Explorers and Detectives.
• The children have showed their creative side in Art, learning how to Tint and Shade and we have begun to look at Primary and Secondary colours.
• In PE we are developing our Fundamental PE skills and Ball skills and have loved getting outside and getting active.

We will be using a continuous provision approach for the Autumn term building on previous learning from Foundation.
Our Big question
…Autumn Term
Was the Great Fire of London really great?
What we thought……….
• There was a fire in London
• Lots of people died
• It started in a bakery
• There was somebody who sorted problems but did nothing about this fire
• The baker didn’t check the ovens
• Happened a long time ago
What we wondered……
• How many people died?
• How and where it started?
• How did the people escape?
• How long did it last?
• How did we know about it if it happened long ago?
• Did London burn?
• How did they put it out?
• Did Buckingham Palace burn?
• Did the London Underground burn?
• Did Trafalgar Square burn?
• Did the London Eye burn?
