This half term we have explored the autumn leaves and trees through sensory, painting and learning. Lots of different colours and textures. The children have colour matched, picked their own leaves and made beautiful art work.

Goldilocks – Writing, Sharing, Exploring and more…
The pupils in Crew Haigh have enjoyed their latest story; Goldilocks And The Three Bears. Sensory story props, making porridge and edible bears (which we obviously loved!) all whilst developing those important motor skills that will help develop our writing – some superb communication and sharing too!
World book day!
Today was AMAZING because it was World Book Day! We got to dress up as our favourite book characters, and everyone looked so cool!
We really enjoyed our sensory story of the Jack and the beanstalk!
Pancake day
Tuesday was the best day ever! We made pancakes, and it was VERY messy (but that’s the fun part!).
First, we mixed all the ingredients in a big bowl. The flour went poof! everywhere, and our faces turned white like snow. We stirred and stirred with big wooden spoons—our arms got super tired, but we didn’t give up!
Then, we scooped the gooey pancake mix into little cups. It was sticky and squishy, and some of it even landed on the table (oops!). But that’s okay because we were having so much fun!
They were the BEST pancakes in the whole wide world!
Valentines♥️
Before the half term we make Valentine’s Day cards for our grown ups, we used our hands to make a flower, we also used toilet roll tubes to make love hearts! We also practiced our hand writing, look how good we’re see getting with writing our names!✍️
Crew Tymon visits the farm!
In Crew Tymon we are learning about animals and we had a lovely surprise that came to visit us! We had lots of fun, we loved stroking them and learning more about them. The donkeys were super friendly and so soft. We didn’t want to leave.
Christmas week in Crew Tymon
This week we have our Christmas event with parents. The children sang Christmas songs, and we made Christmas crafts to take home. To finish off the festive celebrations, the children and staff had a Christmas party day with songs and a party dinner!
Past few weeks in Crew Tymon.
We made some oobleck to practice our cleaning skills, we made some salt dough to work on leaning our numbers and our sharing skills. We made some Pudsey bear faces and made him an eye patch using stickers to focus on our fine motor skills.
Bonfire week in Crew Tymon.
This week in Crew Tymon we celebrated bonfire night. We explored mixing paints together with our hands to make fire paintings. We also put the fire out in phonics using spray bottles. Using our hand eye coordination to roll a ball to make a beautiful firework picture, we also practiced our cutting and fine motor skills. To end the week we had a sparkle and shine disco, and we showed everyone our best dance moves.
Halloween fun.
This week in crew we focused our attention on the upcoming celebration of Halloween! We start our day off with a sensory story. This week the children took part in listening and interacting with our sensory story, The Incy Wincy Spider, as well as participating in lots of messy Halloween crafts.
Cutting and Cleaning
In Crew we like to learn life skills and brush up our fine motor skills. The children are getting used to sharing and taking in turns, which is fantastic!
Outside Learning.
Using chalk paint on different surfaces and making music.
