Look at our hairy caterpillars grow!  Soon we will be able to cut their hair and practise our scissor skills!

The children chose the seeds and planted their own wildflower garden.  It has already been visited by lots of bees!  

Today we have pulled up the potatoes we have grown.  They are all different shapes and sizes.  Tomorrow we will cook them and see what they taste like.

Today the children recorded their learnig and ideas on digital microscopes. We pressed record and listened for the beep!  We then finished our recording and listened for two beeps.  To check it had worked we pressed 'play' and listened carefully!

Today has been very hot so we we decided to see what happens to our trees in Summer.  We asked questions e.g. what has changed since Spring? Why? How do we know it is Summer?

We worked as team to complete a jigsaw of 'The Hungry Caterpillar'.

Today is phoics we have been learning about 'ew' in words.  We have been writing chew, screw, stew and dew.

Last Wedensday we made hairy caterpillars using old tights, compost, grass seeds and string.  The children added buttons and pipe-cleaners to decorate.  We will water them and give them some light.  Watch this space....

We have been using food lids to retell the story of 'The Hungry Caterpillar'.  We had to put the food in the caterpillar's mouth in order.  On Monday....

Willow Class had a great day at Manchester Museum.  We saw a real mummy, Asru, and learned about her from artifacts found in her tomb.

Race for Life

Well done Willow Class. You did it!!

We have mixed grass seed into compost ready to grow our own caterpillars.
