In amongst the sunshine, we have had a very exciting week. We attended the Celebration of Achievement assembly and also met our new teacher.
We have continued learning about the life cycle of a plant and discussing what a plant needs to survive. We planted our own sunflower seeds this week and will bring them home to watch them grow over the summer. We know they need sunlight, water and soil to help them grow.
We also enjoyed some time outside on Friday afternoon in the woodland.
We have been reading ‘Eric Makes a Splash’ and enjoyed creating some swimwear which Eric would like to wear in the swimming pool. Eric feels worried about going in the pool so some new swimwear might help him with his worries. We then tested different materials to see how waterproof they are and discussed which material would be the best for Eric’s swimwear.
We are taking part in a writing compeition and this week wrote our own entries into the competition. We were given the start of the story and then completed the story based on the pictures and our wonderful imaginations.
We have been learning about the artist Henri Matisse and this week created our own artwork based on his skill of painting with scissors. We used coloured paper and scissors to create our own designs.
