Welcome to Crickets class page!

Welcome to Crickets class. We are a class of 10 children and we follow the Orchard pathway.

Miss Evans is our class teacher and our wonderful teaching assistants are Michelle, Madalina and Davinder.

Welcome back to Autumn 2! This half-term we will be focusing on the topic 'Winter Wonderland'. This is a DT topic which will allow us all to explore what it means to design, make and sell different products. As a class, we will explore different elements of winter and work together to create our own items to sell for the Christmas Market. As well as designing and creating different items for the market, we will have a focus story where we will explore different parts of winter and what these mean to us, ie, the temperature (cold, ice, melting frozen, snow), Christmas trees, Christmas traditions, Religious elements which link to Christmas too.

This half-term we will spend the first 2 weeks getting to know each other and our new environment and making new friends and relationships. For the remainder of the half-term our topic is ‘Pottery & Sculpture’. As a class, we will spend each week breaking down different ways of moulding, creating and printing the clay. We will have a different theme each week which will be updated on our Class Dojo page. Crickets are going to explore different textures, types of clay and other materials to ensure that they have a clearer understanding of the different key terms based around the Topic. 

We will share what we have been up to on our class dojo page each day so please join us there.
