Thanks to Mrs Hughes and her garden pond we have some frogs spawn and newly hatched tiny tadpoles in our nursery. They are in Room C (smaller play room). The children are enjoying looking at them daily with magnifying glasses and talking about what they can see and how the tadpoles are changing daily.
Yesterday we made campfires with Ms Connor. First we talked about how to stay safe and discussed what campfire rules we had to follow. (We are learning how to manage risks independently). Next we lit our fire using firelights, sticks and a match. The we cooked popcorn. Ms Connor let us see what the popcorn looked like before it was cooked. When it was cooked we all had some to try. Most of us thought it tasted yummy!!! We can’t wait to do this again
Over the last few week as part of BBC 10 pieces we have been listening to Anna Meredith’s music. She makes music using body percussion. We’ve been making music too by clapping, stamping, clicking and shouting. We watched an orchestra play some of Anna music. Here is a link to another of her pieces. Our sparkle words were a capella (music without instruments), title, audience, body percussion and composer.
