Toys!

After a busy end to the last term and perhaps an even busier Christmas holiday, it is lovely to be back to school and settling into a brand new term.

Reception have decided on a toy theme for this half term and have kicked off the topic by learning about and creating their own moving toys.

After cutting out their chosen toy template, the children learnt how to use split pins to attach the different parts together.

 

During their research into different kinds of moving toys, the children learnt how to use the internet to find out information. We used a search engine designed for children and reminded the children how important it is to stay safe online.
