P4/5 Outdoor Learning

| 2 Comments

When you go down to the woods today you’re in for a BIG surprise!! Wind, rain, shine or snow…….P4/5 will always GO!

Today we travelled down to the woods to do some team building activities. Our challenge was to find some birds nests high up on the trees and discuss what birds use to make their nests.

In groups of 5 we had to build our own birds nest, making sure it was sheltered from the elements and strong enough to with stand wind and most importantly, hold our eggs! We worked well together and each groups nest turned out to be very good! We put them to the test by shaking the branches and are pleased to report that none of the nests fell apart (although some leaves did fall to the ground)

We finished off by looking at and talking about the differences between the nests each group had made. We travelled back through the snow and jumped in a few puddles on the way. Check out our smiley faces (and our dirty faces!)
