We have been making the most of the beautiful weather in the Summer term by enjoying some outdoor learning! Children in Year One have been identifying trees in Science and learning and discussing new scientific vocabulary such as deciduous and evergreen. In Geography, we identified the four seasons and were able to use words to describe each season. Spring can be sunny, rainy, bright or windy, winter can be wet, snowy and frosty, autumn can be rainy, windy and cold and summer is usually hot and sunny. We then planned a route around the school playground and followed our route to investigate the season we are in right now. During our journey, we collected seasonal objects and created a journey stick by using wool to attach leaves, blossom, pine cones and shells to our sticks. This is something that Nature club have also continued to investigate and explore with Mrs Donovan and Mr Powell. As well as this, in Nature club we have been creating pictures from natural materials which were amazing! The children also really enjoyed completing a nature treasure hunt. We came across a barrier when we didn’t have any pens! However, the quick thinking children used grass, mud and sticks to mark their items off! We are really hoping that the warm, dry weather continues so that we can have lots more of exciting adventures in our wonderful outdoor area. Comments are closed.
