Summer Term - Welcome back.

This term Class 1 will be using the film A Bug's Life for their topic.  We will be learning about mini-beasts and plants.

Week 1 - Last week we started the topic with a flower hunt around school, the children had to look for certain flowers and plants that were on their sheet.  We also learnt about the life cycle of a bean.  We have planted beans in jars and made cress heads to watch what happens as they grow.

Week 2 - This week we are looking at frogs and their life cycle.  Miss Rayner has brought in some frogspawn for our mini pond and today the children helped to transfer the frogspawn from a jar to the pond.   They can now watch what happens as frogs grow.

Homework
Year 1 - have phonics, Active Learn maths and Bug Club reading.
Reception - Have phonics and our new creative 'home learning'.  As the letter said it can be completed over two weeks in preparation for Year 1.  The task is written on the page and can be completed in any creative way you wish over the double page.  This can be photos, folded pages, drawings, writing etc.  We look forward to seeing your homework on Monday 27th April.
The first task was 'What living things are in my garden?'
