We have been finding out about ourselves: naming body parts, data handling following surveys about ourselves, asking questions such as Is the oldest person the tallest? and exploring how we can best look after our bodies through healthy eating and exercise.
Following our observations we pulled, pushed and squeezed clay to make these beautiful clay leaf pots.
We have two very happy turkey chicks running and flapping around in their run.
We had a wonderful day at the Barton Turf Adventure Centre looking for Toad Hall, hunting the riverbank for Ratty’s house and exploring the rivers and dykes.
We clambered on and travelled through out beautiful countryside, along lanes and tracks until we arrived in a field full of lettuce. During the morning we found out how lettuce is harvested, how wheat is planted, fed and cut, how machinery prepares the field and then plants seed potatoes and we got very close to an incredibly noisy herd of Aberdeen Angus cows, calves and a bull! Thank you so much to Neatishead Hall Farm for teaching us so much and for taking us around your farm.
We even chose group names from characters in the story: Moles, Rats and Badgers!
From writing the Easter story, creating Easter cards, writing instructions to make Easter nests and Easter singing, we are extremely busy!
