Phonics

The children in Caterpillar class have been doing lots of Phase 1 phonics activities. We have been learning our first set of sounds, identifying initial sounds and building CVC words. We have enjoyed practicing our letter formation and doing a variety of fine motor activities in our TEACCH Baskets.

Autumn 2
Topic

Our topic this half term has been ‘colour’. We have enjoyed exploring different colours in a range of sensory ways. We have had great fun mixing, spreading and swirling and noticing the effects our actions have as the colours change. We have explored a variety of objects, scents and textures that link to the different colours. All of the children have been working hard to sort and match by colour. We even made our very own rainbow for Science day, by experimenting with food colouring and paper towels.
