World Book Day in Nadia’s Class

4th March 2022Nadia Motie

Happy Friday! We have had a great week celebrating World Book Day with lots of special experiences and activities. Our theme this year was Peter Pan. We all took part in a sensory story which we all thoroughly enjoyed! We especially loved watching the sea and watching the mermaid splash about.

The main event was Thursday we had a fantastic World Book Day assembly. We all dressed up or wore our pyjamas and shared our favourite stories around class. We loved listening to all the story books and showed engagement throughout!

We then travelled to Tinkerbell’s cave where we used all our senses! We could smell the pine trees, feel the wind on our faces and see the twinkling fairy lights in the jars trying to escape! We could also hear the fairy’s singing in the background, it was so magical!

During our whole school assembly we watched some of our friends perform their favourite stories, participated in ‘The masker Singer Reader’ joined in with some singing and dancing, not forgetting our usual school catwalk at the end showing off all the difference characters and costumes! A fun day was had by all!

 

Kung Hei Fat Choi

14th February 2022Nadia Motie

Since coming back to school we have been exploring our new topic ‘Asia’. As part of our Topic we have been exploring everything related to Chinese New Year. This has included messy art, messy play, food exploration and music.

On Tuesday we had a whole school assembly to celebrate. We could smell all the lovely food cooking, listened to the music, dancing and watched our friends singing ‘Gung Hey Fat Choi’.

We have also enjoyed our messy play sensory sessions. We have explored different textures, boiled rice, dry rice, noodles, chopsticks and listening to Chinese music during spa and relaxation.

Our sensory story has allowed us to use all our senses to experience Chinese New Year. We listened to the music, watched the dragon dance and smell the incense burning, not forgetting the party cannon and lanterns to finish off!

A day in the Yurt!

8th October 2020Nadia Motie

Hi all! We had a lovely time last week spending the day in our school yurt! It was great fun exploring all of the new sights, sounds and textures. Some of us had music in the yurt and others played in the mud kitchen then we swapped over before having a lovely snack time together. We have also had lots of sensory fun last week with messy play, food exploration and outdoor learning, child led play and intensive interaction. We are loving getting to know our lovely group of children and they are building fantastic relationships with staff already, we are learning all about their interests and needs and will be planning all of our activities with this in mind. Over the next few weeks we will also be celebrating Black History Month so watch this space for all of our themed activities!

Hi all!

We have had a fantastic first few weeks in Nadia’s Class, welcoming some of our lovely new children into school and seeing some familiar faces! We are living in very strange times at the moment as we all know but our children have done fantastically well coming into school! Everyone has settled so well into their new classroom environment and we have had great fun getting to know each other! We have enjoyed lots of outdoor learning such as outdoor art, food messy play and a nature walk. We have also had rebound therapy, singing, jabadao, circle time and lots of child led play and intensive interaction. We look forward to meeting some more of our new children soon! Hope you enjoy our photos!
