Panda

Welcome to Panda Class

Here in Panda class we aim to create a fun-filled, stimulating, and meaningful learning environment. Our teaching covers many aspects of the Early Years Foundation Stage and the Key Stage One Curriculum. Our learners engage and thrive through the delivery of a play based, sensory and active teaching approach that embraces some aspects of formal teaching practice. Our topics this year include, Toys from the Past, Looking After Myself, Festivals and Celebrations, In the Home and Jungle Animals. Embedded within our topic themes lie opportunities for our learners to access a broad and balanced curriculum that is full of new experiences. Our nurturing and child-centred approach encourages our leaners to develop a resilient, ‘have a go’ attitude.

Spring 2 2024

In Maths, The Panda class have spent time counting, reading and writing numbers, we are now measuring heights and lengths. We can sort objects into short and tall. 

We are learning about toys in the past, present and future in History. It has been fun playing with all the different toys and exploring what they are made of. We have noticed many toys in the past were made of wood. 

For Science we have been growing plants and we planted sunflowers, runner beans and tomatoes. The sunflowers have started to grow! We are finding out what a plant needs to survive and what helps them grow well. This links well with our food technology topic where we are discovering where food comes from and cooking filo pasties.
