This week we read a beautiful story about Remembrance Day that helped us to understand why we have this special day. We learned about why we wear poppies and who it is to remember. We made our own Remembrance cards, artwork, and play dough poppies amongst lots of other exciting activities.
Children have practised learning verbs in French today by matching different actions with images of school. Children played a card game in which they had to turn cards over and try to find their matching verb . It got very competitive but children did extremely well to identify the matching pairs.

The children have created work to go on display to showcase their French learning. They have really enjoyed starting to learn French and we have been impressed with their enthusiasm outside of lessons as well.
This week, Reception have been learning about the history of Bonfire Night. They were fascinated to hear how Guy Fawkes plotted to kill King James over 400 years ago.
