Latest note: Parents Plus Children's Programme Note  (Note given: Wednesday, September 28th, 2016)

Learning about the body

We were learning about the body today.

We have a human torso that we can look at and explore.

We love taking apart the body organs and putting them back together again.

We learned a little about the brain, the skull, the lungs, liver, kidneys, stomach, small intestine, large intestine and heart.

A big Thank You to the Madden family who helped us purchase this fantastic resource for the school!

Also, a huge Thank You to the Madden family who helped us buy our newest student!

He's a big addition to our class!

Exploded designs

We made some super exploded designs.

These patterns all should fit back into a square if squashed together again.

Our class

In the garden with Kay

Kay came to visit us today.

We went to the school garden with her to harvest our vegetables.

We spotted all sorts of bugs in the garden..lots of caterpillars, woodlice, slugs, snails, worms, centipedes, daddy-long-legs and beetles.

The nasturtiums have really grown.

We spotted lots of peas in their sweet pea pods.

We harvested carrots, huge turnips, radishes, onions and cabbages.

Guess how heavy this enormous cabbage weighs?

Teacher weighed it at home. It was 4.8kg.

Teacher cut up the cabbage and boiled the turnips for us to eat

BUT THEN SHE FORGOT TO BRING THEM TO SCHOOL!

Silly teacher.

We all took home the rest of the vegetables.

Maybe our families will cook them up for us!

Games at PE

We enjoyed games of dice walking/running

and crab beanbag relays
before we did lots of skills practice with small balls.

Materials around our school

It was such a lovely day today.

We went outside around the school and to our school garden to investigate materials.

We looked at all sorts of things -  plants, stones, berries, feathers, bugs, flowers, leaves etc.

We examined them all to see which were hard/soft, shiny/dull, bendy, crumbly, rough/smooth etc.

We sat outside to record all our findings into our books.

We love outdoor learning!
