Lindon Bennett School

Foxes

This half-term we learned about “Growth”. We have been busy planting seeds and observing the plants growing.

During stories such as “Jasper’s beanstalk”, “Titch” or “Oliver’s vegetables”, we explored fruits and vegetables, we observed big and small plants and planted flowers. We developed our scooping skills and we’ve got more confident when exploring soil. We copied actions, worked on following instructions, signed and sang together. We developed our communication skills by making choices and expressing our preferences. We worked on our social skills, learning how to share and play with others, making progress towards our individual targets.

We really enjoyed our Enrichment Day activities, celebrating World Book Day. We invited our mums to school and wished them a wonderful Mothers’ Day.

Going forward, we will discover and complete many fun and attractive activities together during the first summer half-term. Our new topic is “Animals”. We will discover the captivating world of jungle and farm animals and the sounds that they make. We will focus on choosing, sorting and matching pictures and real objects in order to develop our understanding.

Foxes will continue having a swimming lesson on Tuesdays. We are looking forward to these sessions working on floating, walking in the water and using swimming equipment. And we will have fun!

We will continue to encourage pupils to be as independent as possible within familiar environments and support them to join in with activities that encourage interaction and self-help skills.

Please keep communicating with us through your child’s diary.
