In science this week, we have been using classification keys to answer questions and identify invertebrate. We had a fantastic time going on an invertebrate hunt, and used our magnifying glasses to study the invertebrate we found including: ants, beetles, spiders, earwigs, ladybirds, slugs, snails…

We have had a very busy half term learning all about minibeasts. We did lots of exciting activities and learnt lots of amazing facts. 
 

We had a great time at Forest School this week. We went on a minibeast hunt and found lots minibeasts. 
 

We have all had lots of fun this week learning about spiders. We learnt lots of facts and went on a spider hunt. The children were excited to make their own spider biscuits, showing good maths skills counting all the legs. 

We had lots of fun at exploring Forest School. We also listened carefully to the sounds we could hear around us. 

Mrs Augusta had a problem finding a matching pair of wellies, maybe the Dojo monsters are playing a trick.

George, Year 5, has been busy learning how to make a bug hotel with his dad. He has learnt new woodwork skills, including how to use a hammer and nails safely, whilst caring for the environment. Well done George, this looks amazing and I am sure will be a great place for our garden mini beasts…

We enjoyed exploring at Forest School; observing seasonal change and searching for signs of Autumn.
