Aisling's Class 2024 - 2025

Autumn Term 2 
Hi everyone, welcome to Aisling’s Class.
During Autumn Term 1 our topic was ‘All about me’. We loved learning all about our senses and discovering our likes and dislikes through exploration. 
All the new reception children have had an amazing first term and done exceptionally well at settling into school life and responding well to the structure and routine. As a class we have been learning our class rules and setting new targets. We have been doing lots of work around building relationships with key workers and our friends, lots of physical activities including wake and shake, and accessing the recharge areas and soft play to help us prepare for learning.  
During Autumn Term 2 we started our new topic ‘What is the weather?’ and then for the last four weeks we will be focusing of this term we ‘Special Celebrations’. During our Autumn topic, we will do lots of activities around out story ‘Leaf man. Some of the children have been out with their families over the half term and been on an autumn walk collecting autumn objects and then bring them into school. Please take a look at our lovely photos from this first half term.
‘What is the weather? ’– We will be introducing ‘The Leaf Man’ where we will be concentrating on communication and our voice through various methods such as PECS, intensive interaction and exploring objects. 
‘Special Celebrations' – This will include singing ‘The Christmas Alphabet song by Singing Hands’ and reading ‘The Christmas Jolly Postman’, making cards and decorations in preparation for Christmas and the Christmas fair.
We will be starting practicing for our Christmas Nativity soon. The performance will be on Friday13th December 2024.
These topics will take us up to the Christmas holidays, which leads us to say...
"Merry Christmas and a Happy New Year"
See you in 2025!
From
Aisling, Sharon A, Andrea, Sharon C, Lauren, Charlene, Sophie, Kelly and Megan
