On Wednesday Afternoon the Biggies went on a walk down to Dow’s Wood with Mr and Mrs. Carter. The focus was on trees, but we kept ours eyes and ears open to other experiences.
We were listening to Mr and Mrs Carter when they were talking about the gorse to us and how they smell like coconut.
We were all observing the trees and nature around us and listening to Mr and Mrs Carter.
Everyone really really loved the colour of the gorse because it was a very bright yellow!
We were writing down what we saw in the woods in our little booklet.
Everyone was very happy when they looked at the gorse.
We were all trying to see if there was any bugs on the gorse because sometimes there are little bugs.
Mrs Carter was collecting some gorse for everyone to look at.

There were some mossy rocks surrounding the trees and they were all shaped in different and peculiar ways. There were wee parts of bark that were scuffed and scraped off the trees. The scents around us were both nice and horrible. The good scent was off of the trees around us.

Back in class we worked on sketching and trying to identify leaves and flowers from the trees we had seen.
The Sketches came out well.
