Houses, Homes and Buildings

We started our new topic Homes and Houses today. We talked about different types of houses e.g. cottages and flats. We then discussed who lives in our houses and made a ‘My house’ booklet by writing a list of the people who live in our house and then drawing them in the window. We had a go at building our homes with Lego and looked at books all about houses and homes.

In the garden we now have a compost bin. We will now start to put our waste from snack time into the compost bin.

We have been working on teen numbers ‘13’ and ‘14’, finding ways to make these numbers and practising the formation. We made a class rocket and practised counting forwards and backwards. We have also been finding one more than a given number.

Some of the boys had seen fireworks over the weekend so they used inspiration from what they had seen to create firework pictures using paint and glitter. It was lots of fun!

The boys sat beautifully during the Remembrance Day assembly.
