September
We have had a great start in the middle room this month! The children have been working hard,
learning a lot and having fun too!

We began the year by focusing on the topic ‘All about Me’. We linked this across many subject areas
and discussed belonging in our class. The children discovered many new things about their new
classmates and teacher.

We also looked at ‘days’ in the month of September that were of interest to our class. Two days that
we focused on were ‘International Dot Day’, which is based on the story ‘The Dot’ and ‘Roald Dahl
Day’. Both of these days focused on creativity in our classroom.

In Science, we examined how much sugar there is in different drinks. Many of our estimates were
quite different to the results, which we found very interesting – and alarming! We will be sticking to
the low sugar alternatives from now on hopefully!

In our hallway, we have our Wow Work displays. The children all have work displayed on these walls,
and when they complete any new pieces of work that they are particularly proud of, this display is replaced.
