As Scientists, we have been learning about a Balanced diet, this week we examined and compared the diets of a wide range of animals. We then picked a couple of more unusual animals and used the internet to research what their diet consisted of. We learned that some animals, like the mighty Lion, only eat other animals so are carnivores, some such as giraffes, eat plants so are herbivores and others such as birds are omnivores as they eat both plants and other animals! What diet does your pet have?

 

As Historians, we used pictoral sources of evidence to explore the growth of the railway. We had a really good discussion about how this made Britain better and helped us to travel, trade and grow.

For this week’s Community Visit, we went to the Milk Well in Willerby. We watched the farmer feeding the calves, played in the toy tractor and had a go at milking a model cow. But the best part by far, was that we got to make and enjoy our very own milkshakes. We even took an extra one home for our families to enjoy! We worked up an appetite by playing our favourite games in the park opposite, enjoying socialising with out classmates.

 

Even Spiderman enjoyed a strawberry milkshake!
