Welcome to Term 2 Year 1.
Our first session was all about Remembrance. We thought about nature and gratitude and children names things in nature that they are grateful for. We filled a big poppy on the ground with leaves and teamwork, create poppies from log slices or leaves, we printed poppies with conkers and apples and made nature crosses. Children showed an interest particularly in climbing and digging. Our second week was our cooking week. We let popcorn kernels pop over the fire and then enjoyed it with sugar and salt. We also had some hot squash to keep us warm. If you would like to make popcorn at home - heat the oil up first, then take the pan off the heat for 30 seconds while you add the kernels and then keep cooking over the heat until the water droplets inside expand and the kernels pop.
We sang Christmas songs and children had the option to make some Christmas craft with peelers and palm drills. Some made miniature Christmas trees to take home, snowy pine cones and others made little reindeer.
Have a great christmas break
