Last week, the children in EYFS started their new expedition! Their expedition title is ‘Early Years Engineers’ and their guiding question is ‘In a world of possibilities, what would you make?’
As part of their expedition this term, the children will be completing three case studies and answering some thought-provoking questions as part of these case studies:
- Case Study 1: What can we use to create and build? (Expressive Arts and Design: Creating with Materials)
- Case Study 2: How do you build a community? (Understanding the World: People and Communities)
- Case Study 3 : How can you be a maker like me? (Understanding the World: The Natural World)
Throughout the expedition, a range of traditional tales will be used to inspire, shape and lead the children’s learning:
- Case Study 1: The Three Little Pigs
- Case Study 2: Hansel and Gretel
- Case Study 3 : The Gingerbread Man
Over the course of the term, we will blog about what the children have learnt and experienced as part of their expedition on our individual crew pages. We will also upload photographs of the children’s learning and share their completed work on our expedition website.
