There’s been lots going on in A4 class this week.

In English we continued reading our story The Barnabus Project and we thought about how the main characters were feeling during different scenes in the story. In Maths we did a 3D shape hunt before building different shapes with ice lolly sticks and playdoh and identifying how many faces, edges and vertices each shape has.

In Understanding the World, students celebrated Lunar New Year by trying a range of Chinese food and drinks, such as spring rolls, hoisin sauce, pocky sticks and aloe vera juice and discussing our preferences. Students also made noodles in our cooking lesson and snakes from paper plates to celebrate the year of the snake.

We discussed road safety and then put it into practice when going on our Community Skills visit.

Students have also accessed the sensory rooms, movement room and rebound therapy as well as music therapy.

Well done A4, another great week


Class certificate goes to J W for his contribution to our phonics session.

About us

Welcome to A4. We are a class of seven students who are very lively! We all have unique personalities and have lots of energy! We have oodles of fun while we are learning!  We love to do sensory activities the most and to be outside. Some days we might come home with our uniform dirty but that only means we had the best day and made lots of mess while exploring our senses!  We are excited to learn and explore new things but most of all have fun!

Learning activities covered in our new informal curriculum strive to develop our independence, well being, communication and language skills while also giving us the sensory input we need through the likes of interactive sensory story, Attention Autism, play dough, sensory trays, bubbles, music and using individualised sensory diets to keep us calm and ready to engage in learning. We use zones of regulation to express our feelings throughout the day and various communication aids to support communication and independence as much as possible. Alongside all of this we working really hard on all of our targets especially the ones within our EHCP and individual learning plans. We are all super excited to be doing hydrotherapy, community skills and rebound too.
