Yesterday we visited Harold at the Life Education Bus. We had an amazing time and learned lots about our bodies and what we do to stay healthy. We also helped Harold the giraffe find ways to make himself feel better when he was feeling sad. 

We have been using natural materials to make Teepee's in the construction area. We have been using our wooden small world people to make sure the Teepee's are tall and strong enough to house people. 

We have been using the eatwell plate to create a balanced meal.

We have been looking at number sentences and using compare bears to help us work out the answer. 

We had so much fun writing the letters we have been learning in the dark with our finger lights!

In science we have been learning about our 5 senses. Today we hae used all five of our senses. We have taste tested, listened, looked, touched and smelt a variety of different things. We have had lots of fun and we can now all name our five senses and what we use them for. 

This afternoon Ash class made their own bread rolls and we have tried lots of different breads for our snack. We also learnt some imperative verbs like stir, pour, melt, mix and sieve. We loved trying different breads! :) 

We have been strengthening the muscles in our hand to help us to write. We used cotton buds and paint and glitter glue to follow the wavey, zig zagged and curly lines! 

We have some new planks of wood in our outdoor area. The communication between the children in this area today has been fantastic. They worked well in a team and created a balancing extravaganza! 

We have been learning about our body parts today! We hvae been labelling diagrams and creating bodies on the interactive whiteboard. 

This afternoon we have been using icing and lots of different kinds of sweets to create a sweet house for Hanzel and Gretal. We had to plan our experiment and predict what may happen to the  sweets in different situations. We had lots of fun being scientists for the day!
