Dogs Against Drugs

Leave a comment

Today we had a visit from Michael who works with Dogs Against Drugs. It was very interesting.

We spoke about drugs being bad for you and that they are illegal. We also talked about how dangerous they are for our health.

Michael brought in a dog called Thor. We got to stroke him. He was only 20 months old. If Thor smelt drugs on someone, he would sit down in front of the person.

We got to try on handcuffs, we got to try Michael’s baton and Tyler showed us how leg restraints were used! We also got to try on different jackets and vests.DSCN0814 DSCN0816 DSCN0819 DSCN0823 DSCN0831 DSCN0835 DSCN0837 DSCN0846 DSCN0847

We all got a Dogs Against Drugs keyring.

We really enjoyed our visit.

We have been learning about shape. We have learnt the names of 2D shapes and 3D objects. We have been going on shape hunts! We have been looking for 2D shapes in 3D objects. We have done this in the playground and in the classroom. It has been really good fun! We have looked at 2D nets and then made 3D objects from them. We made cubes, cuboids, triangular-based pyramids, square-based pyramids, triangular prisms and Mrs Spowart made a dodecahedron which has 12 sides and Josh and Freya made an icosahedron which has 20 faces!

We have really enjoyed learning about shape!
