Investigating and Exploring



All the children arrived in their PE kit this morning so thank you very much. It meant that we had a much longer session at the village hall which the children really enjoyed. PE kits will be sent home on Tuesday as a prompt and reminder about the following morning. We have decided to keep them in school as sometimes little accidents can occur and we often change the children into their PE kits if needed.

FS2 talked about dinosaurs today and named those that they knew. The children then went on to make playdough 'food' for their dinosaur toys.

This afternoon we continued our topic based upon 'Houses and Homes'. The children were given batteries, bulbs and wires to explore and investigate. They had great fun trying to work out what things were for and how to make them work. Once they succeeded in making the bulb light up we then had to turn out the lights to see the full effect!
We then talked about electricity in the home, the dangers and the importance of safety.
