This week in food technology, we made ham sandwiches and some of us enjoyed eating them. In maths we looked at sharing amounts between two people. In understand the world we learnt a bit more about Mandela and had a ‘kind’ token, we used this to hand to our friends some sweets! In our sensory story we were identifying different items in the story.  In music we enjoyed using the keyboard again.  

Have a lovely weekend and half term off!

This week in food technology , we peeled parsnips and roasted them with carrots in the air fryer. Then we had them with Yorkshire puddings and gravy. We looked at symmetry when we made Valentines cards. We were looking at different characters in our sensory story ‘Shark in the park’ and trying to always spot the shark. In understanding the world, we have started to look at a different leader. We read Hamda's surprise as it is from the same country Africa as Nelson Mandela, we have learnt that he is a man and wanted peace. With Miss Angus, we enjoyed playing the keyboard and singing into the microphone.

This week in food technology, we peeled cucumbers and made cucumber sandwiches. We finished off our English leaders topic by making crowns and then we had a tea party and ate our cucumber sandwiches and practised pouring tea from a teapot – very British! We finished reading our story and made butterfly prints. We have started our next story ‘Shark in the park’ and explored the different elements. In maths we have looked at the same patterns on each side of a butterfly and been matching the same objects as they were cut along the symmetry line.

About us

Mrs Williams is the teacher and Miss Holling and Mr Kershaw and Mrs Szabo are the teaching assistants in A3. We work hard to create a warm, safe, and inviting environment. 

Our curriculum covers independence skills, creativity, communication and literacy, numeracy, understanding the world and well-being.  As you can imagine we are always busy, and our days are full of activities that cover different topics every term 

The underpinnings of everything we do is centred around communication. We look at sensory input throughout the day for regulation, to explore the world, to understand stories, understanding maths concepts and also as part of play. These all help us develop our skills in all areas. 

The adults will make sure that we achieve our best as we strive for an independent life after Hilltop which ever shape or form it may take. 

We may come home dirty or a tad grubby but be rest assured we have had a lot of fun along the way.
