Chatsworth

We had a gorgeous morning out in the sunshine for our Maths session, looking for the many patterns that exist all around us. We found patterns on leaves, cars and brickwork!

In our English session, we experienced a new sensory story called ‘Sir Pranceabout and the Dragon’. We had lots of fun exploring some new props and hearing all about what happens to Sir Pranceabout when he meets a fierce dragon!

We’ve been all around the world today! We have visited France, Mexico and India, before returning to Jamaica. There were many interesting activities to explore (and lots of yummy food too!).

What a fantastic week we’ve had so far! Chatsworth’s focus country this year is Jamaica. We have tasted different foods, listened to reggae music, explored the sensory story ‘Jehvon Goes to Jamaica’, enjoyed a Jamaica-themed Music and Touch session, and even made banana pancakes!

We’ve had a great afternoon in our sensory room exploring the lights, singing songs and blowing bubbles!

We’ve had 4 very fun-filled days of Easter activities! These have included a sensory version of The Easter Story, an Easter Egg Hunt, lots of crafts, an Easter-themed phonics session and a whole-school party!

We have had a brilliant day at The Tropical Butterfly House! We saw lots of animals and insects from all around the world.

We’ve had a brilliant afternoon showing off our culinary skills with some Easter-themed chocolate nest buns. We enjoyed getting our hands messy, mixing the chocolate, and decorating with mini eggs. The best part was the taste test!

As part of our humanities topic, we have started to look at what different environments look like around the world. In our introductory lesson, we had lots of fun exploring different textures in the tuff trays and playing in the water.

In Science, we are learning about growth and plants. As part of our introductory lesson, we had a lovely seasonal walk looking at our environment, smelling the flowers, feeling the leaves and looking for signs of growth.
