It was wonderful to welcome the children into Willow trees this week. There have been a lot of changes made over the summer holidays, the most prominent and exciting of which is our new garden.  The children have had the most incredible time getting to experience and explore all the wonderful different areas and equipment that will be inspiring and enhancing their learning. 

This term in English, our picture book is The Whale That Wanted More by Rachel Bright, our poetry book is Revolting Rhymes by Roald Dahl and our class sharing book is George's Marvellous Medicine by Roald Dahl. 

Our learning experience for the first two weeks of the term will be Geography and 'Where we live.' This week our focus has been on learning about the four countries that make up the United Kingdom, their flags, their traditions, foods and their capital cities. 

During Maths, our focus will be place value, starting with building fluency with numbers between 0 and 20.

Myself, Mr Brooks and the children have had a fantastic week exploring, discovering and getting to know each other. Below are images from our learning this week.
