BPS EYFS

Fantastic visit to @WashingpoolFarm yesterday with lots of activities led by @DiscoverFarming. Feeding animals, picking crops, planting seeds...thanks for having us! #eyfs #ltfot

EYFS loved their visit to @BridportLibrary yesterday. We had a tour of the library and got to look at lots of books. Thank you for having us! #eyfs #bridport #ltfot

This term we’ve been growing our own radishes outside. These were planted a few weeks before half term. Reception have been harvesting the first of the crop! #eyfs #growing #ltfot

Tasting porridge this morning to test a recipe for Goldilocks. She wants to make porridge for the bears to say sorry for eating their breakfast! #eyfs @Talk4Writing @PieCorbett

We’ve been considering the way our faces change when we are feeling different emotions. We looked in mirrors and observed our faces. Can you guess what each emotion is? #eyfs #PSHE #earlyyears #PSED

We produced some art inspired by Matisse and his famous Snail. We used a range of techniques and materials and experiment with placement before sticking them down, just like Matisse himself!

We’ve been learning about plants this half term. The children planted nasturtium seeds and have been observing them closely. This was the prep work; washing pots, filling with compost,and popping the seeds in before carefully covering them over. Let’s hope we get some blooms!

We had such a great time this morning at our first fun run! #funrun #ltfot #eyfs

What fun we had last week making mocktails for the King’s Coronation! Thank you to Lloyd from Dark Bear for making it happen! #eyfs #CoronationDay #ltfot #RRS

Wow moment yesterday! Writing speech bubbles as characters from The Gingerbread Man, our new @Talk4Writing story. All the children were so excited to write 😍 @PieCorbett #eyfs #earlywriting #literacy

“Breaking news! This monster is in our playground. We found some clues.” Super independent writing inspired by the troll in our children decided to make signs to warn visitors. #eyfs #earlywriting #independentwriting #reception #childinitiated

Some super Number Block pictures inspired NCETM maths lessons last week. The children did these during choosing time, completely independently. Once one did it, it started a chain reaction! I love how different each one is! #eyfs #eyfsmaths #numberblocks @numberblocks @NCETM

We introduced story mountains this week, and the children LOVED having a go at making their own. Completely independent and some fantastic story language which we scribed for them. #talk4writing #piecorbett #eyfsliteracy @PieCorbett @Talk4Writing

Some super independent writing this week! So many children love mark making, and we have so much brilliant child led writing going on at the moment. #eyfs #childledlearning #learningthroughplay #earlywriting

Busy week inventing new ideas to change the setting in our @Talk4Writing text “The Little Red Hen.” The children have also been busy having their first go at story maps over the last few weeks, as well as telling the story orally. #eyfs #talk4writing #piecorbett

Great fun on our autumn walk today. We spotted lots of different coloured leaves, acorns, sycamore helicopters, and more! #eyfs

We've been off the grid whilst our new children settle into school life. Here's some photos of the wonderful creative work they've been up to! #eyfs #childledlearning #play #learningthroughplay

EYFS and year 6 reading buddies met for the first time this afternoon #reading #eyfs #ltfot

Independent writing superstar! #eyfs #cp #ltfot

This little adventurer has invented a boat: the secret passcode makes it float! We tested it out in the water area #cp #eyfs #passcodes
