Norton Infant School

Following our visit from Mrs Wilson, the dietician last week, we have decided to try a new food each Friday. This week some of the children have tried houmous for the very first time. It went down a treat…

I wonder what will be next on our menu?

In our final case study we have been considering the question ‘how does my body grow and change?’ The children enjoyed looking back at photos from when they were babies and we played a game of baby guess who.

We have been reading ‘The Growing Story’ by Ruth Krauss that celebrates those little changes that tell us we’re growing up! The children have thought of some great ways that we can keep our bodies strong and healthy…

EXERCISE

The children enjoy keeping fit in our P.E sessions each week. We have started doing a daily mile in the morning before our phonic sessions. It makes us feel good walking in the sunshine and we are ready to learn!

DRINK WATER

EAT HEALTHY FOODS

We were lucky to have an expert visitor in school, Mrs Wilson, a dietician from Doncaster Hospital. The children enjoyed listening to her knowledge and insight and they thoroughly enjoyed sorting the foods into the different categories.

We love growing and learning together in Class 1. It has been a great end to an awesome expedition! We are looking forward to celebrating with our families tomorrow at our celebration of learning event 🙂

We have had an amazing afternoon sharing our learning with our parents and presenting our final product. We have tried different fruit and vegetables, learnt lots of facts about plants, tasted beetroot smoothie and a Spinach cake.

Our reception children have had a wonderful week exploring our learning environment. They have been designing and making some wonderful models in our construction areas. They have also taken their phonics outdoors and have been amazing us with some of the long words they have been writing! They have been planting their own seeds and observing them as they grow and change into little shoots. Finally, all children have been marvellous mathematicians and have been identifying and explaining ‘doubles’. They have taken part in our whole class lessons and then accessed number areas independently to further develop their understanding. A super week of learning – well done Class 2!
