P1C were delighted to return to the woodland this afternoon. They were keen to hunt for minibeasts, looking under logs and digging in the ground. They compared different types of worms and looked at slugs and how they differed from worms. They also enjoyed solving problems, working together and making trails to lead each other from one part of the woodland to the other.  They hunted for gems, created their own obstacle course and estimated, counted and compared amounts of stones. They also enjoyed creating music and forming their own stick band!

“I am going to use this for a tyre race.”

Searching for worms in the mud.

We are looking for gems.

I have found a slug, it is leaving a trail.

“On our obstacle course you have to balance on the bench and you can slide down the pole.”

“I have lots of stones, I think there is about 20.”

“I think there is less than 20.”

“There are 26 that is more than 20, I am going to get more to make 100. I can count to 100.”

“We can use the sticks for drumming to make music.”

“We have created our own band.”

“We are working together to balance and keep each other from falling. If someone pushes it back. The other person can catch it, 1,2,3 go!”
