Plant life

As part of our topic about living and non-living things we have been doing an experiment in our classroom.

There were three unhealthy plants in our class and we talked about what they need to grow and thrive.

We know they need water, sunlight and oxygen. So, we have been trying to care more for our plants  over the last few weeks.

Someone suggested re-potting the plants to give them more space to grow. We still have to do this but, so far two of the plants are already looking much healthier since we have spent more time looking after them.

 

 

 

Lest we forget

Tomorrow is Remembrance Day and we have been learning a lot about the Poppy story.

We will all be silent at 11 o’clock and think about the servicemen and women who have died in battle.

Poppies grew in the muddy battlefields of Flanders and we now think of them as a symbol of Remembrance Day.

We made some poppy wreaths  to display in our windows.

Looping numbers

We have been learning a new strategy of looping objects to help us to see groups of 5 easier. Looping objects  also helps us to count numbers faster.

 

we started off by using counters and drawing them in groups of 5 then we moved on to  looping drawings of objects.

This activity also helped us  count in fives.

Social Skills

We have been playing games & doing activities that involve turn taking, sharing as well as lots of fun! We are learning how to organise ourselves at our tables so that everyone has a turn & feels fairly treated.  We are having fun while developing our co-operation skills.

Guy Fawkes Art

We worked really hard on Wednesday afternoon with Mrs Wilkinson. We heard the story of Guy Fawkes & the gunpowder plot. We used black pens to draw the Houses of Parliament then we added fireworks to the sky using chalks. We are very proud of our super pictures!

Spooky fun !

Our design brief was to create a lantern for our glowing pumpkin balloon.

Here are some of the amazing 3D lanterns we designed.

What’s amazing is that they all look so different. We enjoyed having some personalisation in our designs.

We are hoping to have some spooky fun tomorrow night with our glowing lanterns.

 

Happy Hallowe’en everyone !
