Room 3 have been very busy preparing for the arrival of the season of spring. They went outside to go on an early spring watch and spotted lots of early signs in the change of season. They kept a record of this and then went back out a couple of weeks later to compare the results!
Within their classroom, room 3 have also made their very own Garden Centre, where children can create real life situations through imagination and role play, children have opportunities to be the Garden Centre manager, cashier, sales assistant, customer etc.
In literacy, room 3 have also been reading and writing about the traditional tale; Jack & the Beanstalk. They have planted their own ‘magic beans’ (runner beans) and are measuring their growth each week. Room 3 have also planted sunflower seeds for the Sunflower Tea Party! In drama, they have presented the story of Jack and the Beanstalk to an audience.
Throughout these learning experiences children have gained knowledge and understanding of the importance of caring for seeds and plants, throughout their journey. Great work Room 3.
