The day started with a touch of frost. Despite this we tackled the Bee hotel wild flower beds. These have become full of grass with no flowers. We have dug out the grass, and will cover them up over the winter. in spring we will seed some more will flowers. We added some sand to make the soli a bit less rich and covered them which will hopefully kill any remains grass to make room for the flowers.<\/p>\n\n\n\n

Camera Stand challenge<\/h2>\n\n\n\n

We feed the birds in the playground and have a NatureWatch camera to take photos of our visitors. The class were challenged to make a better camera stand, that could be adjustable and move around on a tricky slope.<\/p>\n\n\n\n

Next we worked on some estimating weight for maths. Everybody got a small contained and filled it with sand. They then weighed their own box but did not tell anyone else. The children then estimated all of each other boxes. We will calculate the best estimator when we are doing some inside maths. There are some accurate estimates.<\/p>\n\n\n\n

Photos & Poems<\/h2>\n\n\n\n

In the afternoon we took our iPads out to catch some photos of the winter light, it was a lovely bright, but cold day. We also wrote some haiku inspired by the season.<\/p>\n\n\n\n

Firepit<\/h2>\n\n\n\n

We ended the day reading our haiku round the fire pit and finishing off with some marshmallows s’mores.<\/p>\n\n\n\n
