Autumn 1: Me and My Family

Week 6

Goldilocks!

9th - 13th October

Who can we talk to when we are worried? How do they help us?

Number 3! We have played a shake and drop game with 3 double sided counters. This helped us to see the different ways 3 can be composed. Once we had dropped our counters, we spoke about how 3 has been made and then represented it using dots.

Following on from our investigations yesterday, we made a list of ingredients we would like to add to our porridge. We followed a recipe to make our own porridge, added our toppings, observed how the porridge changed again and then tasted it. The children used words such as “sweet” and “sticky” to describe the porridge.

Porridge! The children enjoyed exploring with the porridge oats. They mixed their oats with different ingredients, and use their hands to feel how it changed, their eyes to observe and their noses to smell how the oats changed as we added another ingredient.

Drawing Club! Draw the house of the 3 bears. Some excellent secret codes on our drawings... “My code is a X to say Goldilocks can’t come in!”

The clues led us to believe it was Goldilocks! Our mission was to draw Goldilocks and add a secret code to our drawing.

The children helped to retell the story of Goldilocks!

Who has been in our classroom? We need the RZ detectives to find out who it is.
