Our topic this half term is....
Farming and Growing
We will be using a story map to learn and retell the story and creating actions to help us remember it. We will be growing plants and observing what they need to grow well. We will look at different foods, and how they are grown all over the world.
We will be learning about the life cycles of different animals and how they change and grow. We will be comparing them to how we have grown and how we will continue to grow.
We will be looking at Van Gogh’s ‘Sunflowers’ and creating our own artwork similar to his. Children will have the opportunity to complete observational drawings of different plants, animals and food that grows.
Our learning will link to maths through measuring plants, using language linked to size, sharing out seeds and exploring models of farm animals using 3d shapes.
Our learning will link to Easter and through our RE work we will also learn about the Parable of the Lost Sheep.
For more information on our learning, please see the topic plans at the bottom of the page.
Parents can see more of our learning using their access to Seesaw. Please see Mrs Govier for log in details.

Our Learning Environment
Below are some photographs of our learning environment this year. Our environment evolves and changes depending on our learning and the needs of the children but our continuous provision provides children with continuous access to learning materials that they can use to develop their learning and experiences in any way they choose.
Welcome to the Ash Class page. The children are settling into school well and are learning the routines and structures of school. Some key information is listed below:
- Our PE day is Wednesday.
- Home reading books are changed once a week.
- Homework activities are set every Friday via One Note and photos should be emailed to c.govier@clayton-le-woods.lancs.sch.uk by the following Thursday, ready for our homework celebration.
- On Fridays, merit and manners certificates are given out through whole school celebration assembly on Teams. The child who receives the merit certificate will take home the Everywhere Bear, along with his special bag and diary. This should be returned to class by the following Friday.
