Today we were learning what we find on the seashore at the stoney beach, we were particularly interested in different shapes, patterns, sizes of shells and stones. We were trying to find Grotti Buckies but we did not have any luck today. Some of us were aware of litter on the beach and began to discuss with our peers and our teachers the impact of litter in the sea.<\/p>\n<p><strong>Pupil Voice:<\/strong><\/p>\n<p><em>\u201cThis is a nice shell, it has a straight pattern\u201d<\/em><\/p>\n<p><em>\u201cThis rock has a smiley face on it\u201d<\/em><\/p>\n<p><em>\u201cRubbish is not good for the beach, I have picked up plastic, I will put it in the bin\u201d<\/em><\/p>\n<p><em>\u201cThis is called a rock pool, my dad and me found a crab in one of these once\u201d.<\/em><\/p>\n<p><strong>Meta-skills: <\/strong>When we got back to class we washed our sea treasures and will have them in our play provision.
