This week has been Science week so we have done a different science activity everyday.
We have used our senses to carry out lots of investigations.
We did a sound walk to see what sounds we could hear in and around the school. We also listened to sounds from a sound database to see if we could recognise what they were.
We investigated putting raisins in lemonade and observed what happened. The children loved watching the raisins 'dance'!
We carried out a melting experiment with chocolate buttons and warm water. The children closely observed the changes that took place.
We also did a feely feet investigation where the children put their feet in bowls containing different objects without knowing what was in the bowls! They described what they could feel and they tried to guess what was in the bowl by how it felt.
We finished this week with our sport relief mile walk. The children really enjoyed the walk and did very well, as some of them were a little tired towards the end!
Don't forget it's open afternoon on Monday and it's our story cafe on Wednesday morning.

This week we read the book Herb the Vegetarian Dragon. We discussed where fruits and vegetables are grown, the importance of a balanced diet and how to be healthy.
We chose a page in the book as we wanted to redo our book display. The children did lots of painting and everyone had a go at painting a part of the display. Their painting and drawing skills have really progressed since September and we are really pleased with his the display looks. You will be able to see all their hard work at open afternoon.

We are all Bog Babied Up!
This week we have been on a Bog Baby Hunt. Once we'd found our very own Bog Baby, we had to care for them for 2 whole days. We even made them a cosy little bed and made ponds for them to live in! We also tested if they floated or not as in the book.
We also had a story about Cowboy Coyote and we compared cacti and planted seeds.
In maths we have been looking at DOUBLES - just up to 10. Ask us and see if we can remember them.
Next week we are painting!
