Africa Alive 14.3.17

We went to Africa Alive

 

 

We held a desert mouse which had spines. It had adapted so predators didn't eat it.

The mouse lives in the desert.

 

This is a lion skull, lions are from the savannah.

 

 

This snake comes from the rainforest.

 

We went up to the platform to see the lions.

 

We saw giraffes.

 

The white rhino has a big horn. It is huge.

World Book Day 2017

 

We dressed up for world book day.

 

 

There is Alice, Rapunzel, Harry Potter, Captain America, Superman and Count Dracula,  among others. The teachers and helpers are BFG, Tracy Beaker, Cat In The Hat and Giraffe (can't dance).

 

Later we will be choosing which story to listen to,  they will be read by all the staff, including the Office Manager!



Pancake Day

 

Today we made pancakes

 

 

We read the instructions.

 

We measured carefully.

 

Then we helped spoon the mixture for the grown ups to cook.



Visit to Felbrigg Hall gardens

We found a great tree to sit on and climb in.

A lot of us fitted into the tree.

This tree stump made us a brilliant pirate ship.

We sat in this area, chatted and pretended to be grown ups.

We found a toad hiding.

Forest School Fire

This week we met Rob.

We collected very thin sticks and honeysuckle bark.

Rob piled it up.....

And made a fire!

We made hot chocolate.

We got some large logs.

We sat around the fire on the logs.

Investigating at Forest School 30.1.17

We went to Felbrigg Hall again for Forest School.

We investigated using magnifying glasses.

We looked at different plant species and named them.

This one I named "Green King", I thought it looked like a Christmas tree.

We found some bugs and looked at them closely.

Forest School at Felbrigg Hall

This week we returned to Felbrigg Hall grounds to continue our Forest School learning. We went up the Victory V and went in the mud. It was great fun.

On the way we played in a hollow tree, it was our squirrel tree.
