We have all been working very hard this week learning all about minibeasts, painting, building with blocks and cubes, exploring our minibeasts small world, practising our writing and playing maths games to practise our skills. Everyone has done an amazing job!
We went into our school garden to explore some minibeasts habitats and see which and how many minibeasts we could find in our garden. We could not find all the minibeasts from our tick list but we managed to find quite a few. Then we did follow up activities focussing on all curricular areas. We also practised our spelling and block building on different days.
We also practised writing a persuasive sentence after reading “Betsy Buglove Saves the Bees” and created signs to get our message across. Some children wrote letters or practised bee words in their writing. We also created labels and looked at the parts of a bee.
In Art, we looked at minibeasts and used paints to create minibeasts pictures.
I’m so impressed with all the amazing facts the children remembered about minibeasts and am looking forward to many more exciting lessons and activities!
