Tuesday 2nd June

Today we re-visited the woods and the children spent time improving or re-building their dens. Again we discussed what we would be learning and what the risks could be. I also asked the children to practice giving instructions – we re-capped that these should begin with a time connective and/or a bossy verb.

In reality no-one did this but when I toured the dens we did practice. Unfortunately we had so much fun we were late leaving and late back to school. Our return to school was not safe enough – some were running and going three abreast etc. I must always leave time.

The team-work was great. No-one was upset or huffy and the only behaviour problem was due to  one boy taking wood from someone else’s area.
