Last week we had a fabulous visit from BBOWT, the wildlife trust.
We went outside and were given a magical jewel to hold while we listened carefully to the sounds around. We heard birds, trees and manmade sounds. We then had a set of binoculars each to go bird spotting. There were 10 toy birds hiding in the trees that we had to spot and cross off on our picture list. After that we made herb cocktails that we blended with a stick in a plastic cup. They smelt amazing! We then went on to make our own bug hotels and finally we made bird feeders. We had a great afternoon.
This week we have been writing letters and postcards to BBOWT to thank them for visiting us last week.
In English lessons we have been learning about poetry, focusing on The Owl and the Pussycat. We rehearsed and performed it in class.
In maths lessons we have been working on number bonds to 10 and 20, and some of us have been learning about number bonds to 100 in groups of 10.
In our science lessons we have been learning about animals, starting with mammals.
Next week we hope to go on a Nature walk depending on the weather. I will keep you posted.
Homework task: Draw and label some pictures of mammals. Write about what makes them mammals.
We can stick your work in our class homework book.
Have a great weekend,
Mrs Nixon
