Today our class has been lucky enough to work with Toni and Hels in a Forest School session.
We used a pruning saw a to cut a branch of a hazel tree to create a rope ladder. Others created dens whilst waiting. Lots of skills were developed, including resilience, team-work, communication and empathy.
Supertato we need your help.
The children found a crime scene in the classroom. They were super investigators as they tried to solve the crime.
In this game, we were using the welsh vocabulary of body parts. The game was lots of fun!
Don’t we look amazing in our Easter bonnets? We loved parading around the school for the older children to see our wonderful creations.
This week we have been builders, using our skills to build castles. We used cuboids and cylinders to create the castle walls, keep and towers.
In maths we made shields using our knowledge of symmetry.
We learnt how to sort different materials out which included: glitter, rice, pasta, gems, buttons, hundreds and thousands, marbles, paperclips and bells. We used sieving, magnets, and scoops.
We investigated invisible ink and then used the best to make maps.
We investigated how absorbent different materials were to soak up water from an oasis.
We learnt how to melt ice the quickest without force to retrieve our gems.
Everyone really enjoyed this quest!
We had a fantastic time this morning looking at all of the different animals that the Animal Man brought in. He showed us a chinchilla, cockroaches, spiders, snakes, a scorpion, a bearded dragon and a chameleon.
