Let all that you do be done in Love
1 Corinthians 16:14
This half term we will be exploring the question:
Generosity
We are thinking about our value generosity. We will be looking at stories from the bible to help us understand more about what it means and how we can develop this value within ourselves. We will be thinking about how we can show generosity by giving to others our time, e.g. by listening, playing or helping them.
Forest School
We went to Forest School to look for signs of Spring. It was lovely to hear the birds singing in the trees. We saw lots of different plants and flowers growing. We enjoyed exploring the area and playing on the tyre swings.
Jack and the Beanstalk
We listened to the story Jack and the Beanstalk and used puppets to act it out. We then planted our own peas and beans in a clear cup so that we could watch them grow.
Plants and flowers
We looked closely at plants and flowers and then made observational drawings and paintings.
Balance bikes
We have enjoyed practising our skills on the balance bikes. We're getting really good at taking our feet off the floor and gliding.
Weight
We have been exploring weight using balance scales. We learnt that when the scales went down on one side that object was heavy.
We explored a variety of different types of vegetable seeds
We explored a variety of different types of vegetable seeds using magnifying glasses and tweezers.
Flowers
We looked closely at cut fresh flowers and potted plants and painted them.
Peas and beans
We have looked after our peas and beans and watched them grow. We have left them on the windowsill in the light and watered them. It has been fascinating watching the roots spread out. We have planted them in soil and watered them, ready to take home.
