Mini beast hunting and studying

We started out our lesson today sharing our current knowledge of mini beasts, and we came up with quite a list of names!

After that we went off in pairs to try and find some and think about where they choose to live and why. There was lots of fabulous chat about many of them liking the dark, under stones and rotting wood and how some seem to like sitting on dandelions. We even dug up some grass and soil to investigate and try to answer Adam’s question about how deep worms go.

Unfortunately the rain came on really heavily, so we decided to go back indoors…we took our mini beasts with us as decided to create some labelled diagrams after analysing them under a microscope.

This week we have been learning our new phonics sounds and used lots of creative ways to help with our spelling.

 

We have been learning all about hundreds, tens and units and how to exchange and carry numbers. We used lots of materials to help with our knowledge of this.

 

We also learned all about Eid. We discussed why is is such an important day and made lanterns decorated with Eid designs to celebrate. We wish everyone a great weekend and hope everyone had a great Eid!
