We have been learning about rhythm.

We have tapped a rhythm together.  It was tricky keeping together!

We have kept the beat by tapping one after each other.  We did very well and really enjoyed using the sticks.

We have been learning what the 10 x table is all about!

We worked with a partner to collect 10 things then we added them to what had been collected before.

We now know our 10 times table!

We have been looking for and identifying minibeasts.  We looked at their habitats.   Despite the cold weather we have found lots hiding in different places.

We decided to make homes for them to hibernate in.

Here they are

We made ours by the wall.

We made ours in the forest.

We made ours under the trees.

We all had lots of fun!

We were shape detectives!

We searched the school grounds for 2D shapes!

When we came inside we discussed the properties of our shapes.

We learned about how to stay safe near a fire.

We built our fire.

We used the skewers we made by peeling sticks to toast bread.

We spread our own toast with butter and jam.

We had lots of fun and will use the charcoal we made to

draw pictures.

We needed to collect wood for our bonfire.  Luckily it was very windy yesterday so there was lots of wood to pick up that had fallen off trees.

We needed to collect wood so we could bring it in so it could dry because dry wood burns better than wet wood.

We sorted the wood because thick wood burns slowly and thin wood burns quickly.  We will burn the thin wood first and then the thick wood.  We are looking forward to it.

We learned how to use a peeler safely and we made skewers that we will use to toast bread and marshmallows on our bonfire.

We worked together to collect natural things.  We didn’t pick anything because we care for the plants that are growing.

We decided what picture we wanted to make and then we arranged the things we had collected to make our picture.

We didn’t stick it but Miss Jones photographed our pictures so we could keep them.
