Today we have been practising extending ABAB repeating patterns, and learning how to write our names. I am super proud of how hard everyone tried with these tasks today, there really was some beautiful work and pencil control!

Lighting our lamps

10th October 2025Amy Woods

Today we lit the Diva lamps we made and spoke about how this is a special part of Diwali celebrations.

We used clay and our fine motor skills, to pinch it and manipulate the clay into a diva lamp shape. We then painted our lamps during family learning.

Repeating Patterns

7th October 2025Amy Woods

Last week we learnt about repeating patterns. Today we have built on this using different materials to create patterns and looked carefully at how to extend them. We know that repeating patterns have to take turns, just like friends so we can’t have two of the same next to each other.
