Autumn 2

Food, Glorious Food! 

We will explore where food comes from, how it grows, and the journey it takes from farm to fork. We’ll be learning about different types of food from around the world, discovering how fruits, vegetables, grains, and other ingredients are produced, and discussing the importance of healthy eating. Through hands-on activities, stories, and investigations, we will gain a deeper understanding of the role food plays in our lives and how it connects us to nature, culture, and community.

Jigsaw PSHE - Celebrating Differences

This term, the Jigsaw unit we will be covering in PSHE is ‘Celebrating Difference’. This unit is concerned with respecting and valuing both similarity and difference, appreciating and celebrating uniqueness. It also encompasses anti-bullying and e-safety sessions. The ‘puzzle pieces’ explored are detailed below, as is the core vocabulary we will be teaching and using. In this Puzzle (unit) the children talk about judging others by their appearance, first impressions and what influences their ideas of what is ‘normal’. They discuss bullying, what to do if bullying is suspected, why people may join in or stay quiet and the pressures of being a witness. They talk about their own uniqueness and what is special about themselves.
