WELCOME TO APPLE CLASS

People who help us

This term we will be learning all about different jobs within the community and what they involve. We will explore and create the tools the people need to do their jobs.  Our role play area has been transformed into a vets, which has already proved to be a great success. 

Let's Celebrate

This half term we have learnt all about different celebrations including Birthdays, Fireworks night, Diwali, Thanks giving and of course Christmas.   We all enjoyed a trip to Audley End Miniature Railway to see Father Christmas himself. Are Maths focus for this half term was learning all about numbers to 5, the children learnt to count and recognise numerals within 5. We also started beginning to recognise our letter sounds (phonemes) and shapes (graphemes). 

Night and Day Animals

Our first topic of the year focuses on learning about night and day. We discuss what we do during these times and what they look like.  We learn about the different animals that come out at different times of the day and where they live. During this first half term we learn about the nursery routine and  our school rules. This half term is also the start of our phonics journey where we begin to recognise different sounds around us. Our maths focus will be learning about shapes and colours.
