We had a fantastic time visiting the Botanical Gardens! We investigated different foods that grow in the rainforest and were lucky enough to have a chance to hold a few animals! We also spent some time in the hot, humid tropical house to get an experience of the rainforest climate.
All the children thoroughly enjoyed themselves and now have some brilliant questions to bring to their project learning.
Apologies for the lateness of this post – technical difficulties with the photos!
When we read Charlie Cook’s Favourite Book we wanted to find out which book was our favourite book so we made a chart to find out.
Which book did we like the most? How do you know?
Which book did we like the least? How do you know?
In Foundation we have been looking at the changes in our environment as the seasons change. To help us remember, we have been making our own pictures of the seasons and we have been matching the months of the year to the different seasons. Which season is your birthday in?
What happens to the trees as the seasons change? What happens to the animals as the seasons change? What happens to the weather as the seasons change? What happens to day and night as the seasons change?
Why do you think these changes happen?
5c are really busy this afternoon, making their props for Horrible Histories episode. We have also started our script writing today! We can’t wait to start filming next week.
The children are really enjoying their growing project.
After our allotment trip we came back to school and made vegetable soup using the vegetables we picked.
Today we started growing our own cress. We are excited about watching it grow!
We made instructions as a class and then followed them to plant our cress. Now we need to remember to water them each morning!
We loved reading the story of The Very Hungry Caterpillar.
Last week, 5c were very busy preparing for our lantern festival. We made lanterns from willow and tracing paper, we also practised all of our songs so that we knew them by heart!
We absolutely loved performing at the lantern festival, we hope you enjoyed it too!
