We painted beautiful poppies outside today.
The poppies help us remember all the special people who have fought in wars to keep us and our country safe.
F1 made firework pictures on our ‘Bonfire WOW day’. Their pictures have now been put up in our classroom for everybody to see!
Some more FS2 children enjoyed mud painting during our Forest School session this week.
First we carefully made our paint brushes with the sticks and leaves that had been collected…
Next, we carefully scooped and mixed our mud… adding water and powder paint to make beautiful colours…
After that, we got to work on our amazing creations!
We all shared the colours we had made.
Look at our masterpieces!
Aren’t they just wonderful?
This week we have had an amazing time exploring and investigating in our outdoor water area.
First we used the hose to fill our containers…we turned some of the water red, we even added some bubbles too!
Next, we used different containers to collect and move the water…some held lots of water but others only held a little…
…we scooped, hooked and even painted with our water!
After that, we worked together to fill the gully with water… we paddled in it too, it was great fun!
Then finally, we scrapped away the leaves so the water could go down the drain.
We love working together with our friends, sharing and team work gets the job done 😊
During PE this week we found out about how water changes … first we felt the water, it felt soft and squishy..
…then we felt the ice, it was very cold! It was slippery too and we even gave it a smell…it made our noses cold!
We talked about how Jack Frost makes water freeze and how the beautiful sunshine makes it melt.
Then, we all moved around in different ways and then we practised ‘freezing’.
After that, we took it in turns to be Jack Frost, when he touches you you must stop and freeze! It was good fun and we were all so good at following instructions.
Next, we took turns to be the sunshine – if you had been frozen, once the sunshine touches you, you melted and could move again.
We were very clever at stopping, starting, changing direction and freezing.
Finally, we practised jogging, jumping, skipping and hopping too, we are very good at moving around outside carefully.
The children worked really hard during PE on Wednesday to learn a fire work dance.
They followed instructions really well and moved with control and coordination. They even improvised their own movements to look like fireworks. I was very impressed.
