Science- Growing Beans

Chestnut Class have been growing beans in bags and documenting their progress using a bean diary. We have had to move some of them because they are getting so big!

Paul Klee inspired artwork

Oak Class have done an incredible job of creating some artwork inspired by Paul Klee. They really brighten up the corridor!

Forest Schools-Measuring

Today in our Forest Schools session Oak and Chestnut Class used string to find trees with a circumference that was smaller, bigger and the same size as their piece of string. They then had to find some natural objects of different sizes and order them. We had some fantastic teamwork going on!

Symmetry- Forest Schools

Today in our Forest School session we made some symmetrical patterns using natural objects. We made some beautiful patterns. When we had finished using natural objects, we also had a go at drawing a symmetrical picture on the playground with chalk.

Orbiting

Today in our forest school session we talked about the sun being a star and how different planets orbit the sun. One person got to be the sun and we had a go at orbiting in rings around them. We also found other things in the playground that we could orbit. We had a go at making stars from different natural things. They were all wonderful!

Planting Potatoes

Mrs Perry took some children out to plant some potatoes in our garden. The children had loads of fun and we can’t wait to see how they turn out!

Data Collection

During our Maths lesson we collected data about people’s favourite things such as their favourite ice cream flavour and favourite colour. We will use this data to create some block graphs.

Space Helmets

We have also used our fine motor skills to create some space helmets, with Miss Molloy, this week, using colanders and pipe cleaners. We think they are fabulous!

Gardening

We have been very lucky because Mrs Pell, our avid gardener has been teaching us how to sow and look after seeds and plants. We now have our own tyre in the garden that is our responsibility to look after!
