Foundation Farm Trip

Reception started their new topic ‘Terrific Transport’ by exploring farm vehicles. They shared lots of stories about farm vehicles including ‘Goodnight Tractor’ and compared farm vehicles from the past with those that are used in the present. They assembled a tractor picture by colouring, cutting and sticking on the tractor parts; and made farm maps, drawing and labeling the animals and vehicles and features of the farm. They also pushed cars through a long tube and measured how far they travelled along a large number line on the ground and built their own cars using a programme on the Clevertouch. They practiced subitising with dot cards and made three letter words with sound cards in hoops. They really enjoyed their class trip to the farm – their favourite part was the bumpy tractor ride!
