What a busy Spring term of learning, new experience and teamwork we have had in the ER!
Can't wait to start our new topic, "Rainforest adventures" in the summer term.

Does everything have the same melting point?

The children have been investigating different melting points and so we obviously compared a chocolate button with a squashie! #whatamess #yummy @BrackensdaleS

The children have been working on their turn-taking and social interaction targets this afternoon. There were some lovely examples of congratulating their partners when they won. Well done everyone!

The children in the ER have been supporting @starlight_uk by designing bunting to send to hospitals and hospices across the country to help brighten the settings. We are sending festive thoughts to all staff and families in hospital at this time ♥️🎄⭐#bekind @NHS @BrackensdaleS

This week in our Food Therapy session, the children have been designing and carving pumpkins. Several children were able to tolerate the touch of the pumpkin and we all used the insides to make a Winter Vegetable soup. Well done everyone!

We've had such a great week at Brackensdale in the ER! Lots of new routines and expectations to learn and the children have taken it in their stride, as they always do. Amazing!

This week we have been discussing and finding out about the Amazon Rainforest and deforestation around the world. Also, thinking about being kind and how we can help each other and our planet.

Our focus for the rest of the term is "Be Kind" and the children have written reasons to be thankful this morning. We can't wait to link with the whole school to create a huge chain of reasons to be grateful to be part of BSA! #BeKind @BrackensdaleS

National Writing Day!
The children loved the book 'Journey' by Aaron Becker. It is a beautiful book with amazing illustrations and no text. Some super writing was produced. :)
