Friday 27th March

In Phase 1 we ended our British Wildlife Week learning all about Badgers.

We began the day by having great fun making a badger’s head out of a paper plate.

We then learnt about the fact that badgers and nocturnal and that this is why we don’t see them very often. We created our own night time scenes to show this.

 

Thursday 26th March

Today we continued our British Wildlife Week theme by beginning the morning with a ‘Hungry Caterpillar’ colouring competition.

We then made caterpillar-themed thank you cards for our local ASDA supermarket to show our appreciation of their efforts during these challenging times. Those who completed their card with time to spare made their own ‘collage goose’.

Before lunchtime, we went around the school environment looking for natural objects which could be used to help create our very own ‘Bug Hotel’ for the mini-beasts living at our school.

In the afternoon, we learnt how to play Archery followed by some ‘Golden Time’ as a reward to the children for being so well behaved throughout the day.
