In class 1 the children had a wonderful day at the Small Breeds Owl and Farm Park. Â They got to experience many different owls and learnt about when they are active. Â They were very surprised to hear that not all owls are nocturnal. Â They children bathed a tortoise, investigated the difference between geese and ducks and even handled and fed some animals. Â As part of this topic after the trip the children wrote fact sheets on their choice of owl and labelled a collage of owls for display in class.
In science the children studied the weather changes at this time of year and made model weather vanes. Â They have also studied the life cycle of an owl.
For maths the Year 1 children did a practical experiment on how far a car would travel on different road surfaces measuring with standard and non-standard measures.
Reception have also been doing some fantastic work and are recognising and blending their sounds to read simple words. Â They have been counting and solving simple problems for addition and subtraction.
