Reception learn about autumn

Date: 28th Nov 2025 @ 10:59am

Over this half term the children in reception have been learning about the season of autumn.  We had a fantastic trip to Salisbury Woods where we looked for signs of autumn and look for different autumnal animals living in the woods.  When we returned to school many of our oracy sessions were themed around autumn; exploring new vocabulary and using stem sentences to and widgets to build our own sentences.  We have also been learning to build on each others knowledge which has led to some fabulous discussions during carpet time.  Within continuous provision we have been painting autumn trees, exploring our autumn sensory tough tray and taking part in many activities in writing and maths linked to the theme of autumn.
