A big 'thank you' for sending in materials to create 'The Digestive System'.  I'm sure you will agree the display looks fantastic.

Willow Class have been working hard studying fruit.  Their clay 3D models are great.  The children shaped the clay whilst closely observing fruit.  The models then went to Pilling Pottery to be baked in their kiln.  The children then painted the fruit using different techniques to create texture…

Last week we listened to different Little Red Hen stories - we have had fun making our own bread and tasing different breads from around the world for our snacks.

We have acted out the stories using different animals.

Willow Class are learning about 'The Digestive System'.  With the help of our torso model (Josephine) the children were able to dismantle and reassemble the digestive system along with other organs.

We have been studying food and looking at art work by famous artists such as Renoir's study of onions and Cezanne's apples. The children then used blending and dabbing techniques to create watermelon masterpieces.

The children used different tools to cut, rip and grind food then matched these tools to the function of human teeth.

Willow Class enjoyed their day out at Global Renewables in Leyland.  The children completed 'hands on' sorting activities using methods the real machines use then were fascinated when touring the facility. What a lot of rubbish!!

We have been using our hands and scissors to sculpt a setting from the Three Billy Goats Gruff.

We are leaning which characters are good and which characters are bad!

We have been using numbers to 20 and putting them in order!

We have been designing a waterproof coat for Baby bear. We had to predict if plastic, cotton, tin-foil or paper would keep him dry!

We had to change the material but keep the amount of water we used the same.
