Winter is HERE! In Science this week we have been looking at the changing in the seasons and weather and boy can we tell that Winter is here!

The Children arrived at school on Tuesday to see that Jack Frost had been overnight and had turned our Foundation Stage garden into a wonderful delight of ice, sparkles and frozen frost! We have had such fun wrapping up warm and exploring the great outdoors to explore ice- what is it? How does it happen? what happens to it? So many great questions and discussions, explorations and observations to discover the answers!

The children have loved touching it, writing their names in it and trying very hard to break it! Great team building and skills as they tried a variety of tools to attempt to smash and break the ice! We have also enjoyed looking at nature around us and how the frost has affected some of the trees, leaves and plants! We had a lovely idea to use our warm hands to help warm up some of the frozen leaves!

And we also couldn’t help but have a sing song outside with our boom box…of course ‘Let it go’ by Elsa had to come out!
