During the Autumn term theme 'Out of this World' we created our very own 2D planets using different materials. The children also explored Music and how we can create music through body percussion such as clapping, stamping our feet and patting our knees. Red class also explored different instruments, the sounds that they make and different melodies that can be created by these instruments. In DT food, the children have practiced hand washing, turn-taking, and various skills in preparing and mixing ingredients to bake lots of different foods.
