Today Robins class were Geographers and we went on a fieldwork walk to map Semley Village.

The Year 1's, with the help of Kites, did some beautiful Andy Goldsworthy Inspired Art.

In Science, we have been planting seeds as part of our work on plants.

Science Week.

We have had great fun in Science week. Not only have the children enjoyed all the experiments, but there has been some excellent thinking too. They have been doing lots of predicting, problem solving and deciding what they would do differently when things have not quite gone to plan, plus applying their scientific knowledge. There has also been lots of team work, cooperation and patience needed. Robins class is full of budding future scientists!

Robins Trip to the Sea Life Centre

In order to support our learning on Under the Sea, we went to the Sea Life Centre in Weymouth. The children were enthusiastic, interested and beautifully behaved. We had a brilliant time exploring all the exhibits and using our knowledge. Take a look at the pictures below.

We loved dressing up for World book day.

We had a great time in our Tae Kwon Do taster session today!

What a great day we have had today. This morning, in groups, we made our own salt dough which we used to cut out the 7 continents, using templates. Once they have dried, we hope to turn them into mobiles - watch this space!

This afternoon, in order to support our Science learning, we did some practical activities sorting sea creatures using our own criteria. We also did some story telling and decorated the playground with sea creatures too. We had lots of fun. Take a look at the pictures below.
