Throughout the day they also took part in various art activities that used different techniques and materials. By the end of the day they had each created a colourful seascape.

Class 3 Seaside Day
Class 3 enjoyed a fun-filled Seaside Day! They composed some exciting “Haiku” poems with a seaside theme and listened to and commented on various seaside poetry.

Frog Found
Today, the boys in Class 1 were very excited when Mrs. Glover found a creature in one of our outside trays. We weren’t sure if it was a frog or a toad so we did some investigating on the computer and, having looked at the patterns on his skin, found out he was a Common Frog. After a while, he hopped out of the tray and away.
Bubble Fun
Class 3 had a very exciting week of learning again last week which included creating some super artwork, using Stop Motion with Lego and scenery they created themselves, and had great fun with a bubble trouble investigation using bicarbonate of soda and vinegar. Bubbles did form, but much to the children’s disappointment it did not burst the bag! We changed the variables and amount of ingredients used and although the volume of bubbles greatly increased the bag was still intact…Levi and Milan commented that it would take bottles of vinegar to get that reaction!
We are looking forward to another exciting week including our seaside day.
Playdough Fun
The boys in Class 1 were very excited to find their own bags of playdough this morning. They each had a set of tool and cutters and had lots of fun exploring what they could make . This is great for developing their fine motor skills and pincer grip for pencil holding.
Rain, Rain
The children in Class 1 are learning about Noah and the Ark. We’ve talked a lot about the rain in the story and tried to think about 40 days and 40 nights of rain. Today, as it was raining in Grantham, we made our own rain sticks so we even had the sound of rain indoors!
