Amber Class  

 Welcome to Amber Class

We are the Early Years Foundation Stage (EYFS) where learning takes place through purposeful play opportunities that are led and directed by the children and adults. Throughout the year we help children to develop the fundamental learning skills and attitudes that will support them as they progress through the school. 

 This term we have been reading amazing stories and linking it with the other areas of  the EYFS curriculum.

In Literacy the children where able to describe the character of the stories and beginning to write short sentences using capital letter, finger spaces and full stop.

Through Lost and Found story we learned about other habitats and environment, places like South Pole and animals that live there. We also learned about things that sink and float and explored different types of materials and their properties.

The children used different materials to build their boats independently and they were able to test their boats in water.

Testing the boats.

Building boats in teams building relationships and pretending to go to the South Pole.

In Art, we used the proper colours to paint penguins and learned lots of facts about the emperor penguin.

We also experimented how to make snow and learned new words when describing the snow.

 In Math we have been exploring number bonds.
