Forest school

We have been learning about the structure of plants and trees in our science so in forest school this week we used our science knowledge to show the different parts of plants and trees using materials that we found in the forest. Tigers all worked so well with their groups, listening to everyone’s ideas and making sure everyone felt part of the team. I love how each group came up with very different ideas of how to demonstrate the structure of trees and plants. Well done Tigers!

Spring week 10

This week we have taken advantage of the wonderful sunshine and taken our learning outside. In science we have looked at fruit and vegetables and discussed what part of the plant they came from. We looked carefully at the different fruits and compared the different seeds. We have also enjoyed lots of lovely story times outside together as well as lots of time to be with our friends, move and build up our muscles! ☀️

Plants

🌱As part of our science work on plants, Hugo’s daddy came to talk to us about his job as a landscape gardener. He told us all about different plants that grow in different environments, what plants need to survive and how he may help a plant to grow. The children loved seeing the wide variety of plants! The children were so inquisitive and thought of lots of great questions! 🌱
