Today Robins’ took advantage of the shinning sun and made some very brightly coloured ‘Summer Sticks’. They were very good at using their fine motor skills to wrap the wool around the stick. Our summer sticks are now hanging in the outdoor area so make sure you take a look!
We've started our new topic!
Robins’ have started their new topic ‘What can you see in summer?’. We got our feet out this afternoon and painted them to make a summery picture altogether. Robins’ especially enjoyed their toes getting mucky with paint… the cleaning up was not so good for Miss Hall!
Day 1 of Sports Week
Today all of the Robins’ got involved with new age curling and they were brilliant. They listened well, followed instructions and some even got 10 points.
Bug Ball
WOW! Robins’ had so much fun this week dressing up as bugs for ‘The Ugly Bug Ball’. They played party games, dressed up and even had a picnic with wiggly worms. Robins’ have worked super hard this half term on their ‘Minibeasts’ topic and really deserved a celebration. Well Done!
Butterfly Garden's
All week Robins’ have a been working hard to create their own butterfly garden’s. We have planned, made and discussed what we might put in them to attract butterflies. We learnt that flowers would be a good thing to put in them as butterflies drink nectar.
Minibeast Art
Today Robins’ created their own gigantic insects using paint. We enjoyed creating these outside in the sunshine along with the creepy crawlies around us! They looked bold and realistic once we had finished with them. Make sure you have a peep at them in our classroom.
Forest School
We had a fantastic time in the woods this week with Mrs Jesse. She let us build our own minibeasts using things from the forest. The bugs were even bigger than her!
Lulu Ladybird Writing
Today we read the story ‘Lulu Ladybird’ and drew a huge picture of her. Robins’ then added word around her to describe her appearance and personality. Believe it or not… Robins’ writing is getting better than Miss Hall’s and it is really starting to bug her!
Surprise Visitor
Today we had an unexpected visit from Mrs Moreton and her new puppy Zooki.
Minibeast Cafe
Today we set up a ‘Minibeast Cafe’ with crisps, ham, yoghurt, cheese and sweets. We were investigating which food was the tastiest for the bugs. Believe it or not sweets were the most popular food (not only for the bugs)! Robins’ decided this was because it was sugary.
The Bad Tempered Ladybird
Today we explored the story ‘The Bad Tempered Ladybird’. Robins’ found out that he was very grumpy and always wanted a fight! After we had read the story, we created our own story map on the carpet.
We made a WORMERY!
Who knew that Robins’ could make their very own wormery?
Today we collected mud, sand and leaves to make a layered wormery for the worms to live in for the next week. Robins’ then found some worms and added them into the bottle. Take a look…
We are now excited scientists to see what happens over the next few days.
Minibeast Safari!
Robins’ went to the woods to search for some bugs today. They found a spider, a worm and lots of woodlice. They used pots and plastic spoons to capture and study the bugs. Then we released back into the wild. We are very excited to start our new minibeast topic!
Easter Egg Hunt
Today Robins’ received a letter from Peter Rabbit. He was so impressed with our hard working this term that he left some golden Peter Rabbit eggs for us to find. Have a lovely 2 week break and HAPPY EASTER ROBINS!
Hot cross buns today!
Today Robins’ toasted hot cross buns and then tasted them. We learnt that the cross on top of the bun respresents Jesus. They were delicious!
Easter Egg Roll Tradition
It was very eggciting today as Robins’ completed their first ever egg roll competition. They did an eggcellent job with rolling and decorating their eggs. We look forward to the whole school finals on fryday!
TREASURE!
We’ve finally found the treasure and Robins’ were so excited to find out what was in the treasure box! Use your pirate eye (the one without the eye patch) and take a look yourself..
Red Nose Day!
Robins looked fantastic in their crazy wigs and red clothes in aid of Red Nose Day.
It's Science Week!
Today Robins’ became scientist. We used different liquids to see how fast our duck could slide down the ramp. Guess what… water made the duck move down the ramp the fastest (2 seconds)and syrup was the slowest (2 minutes).
Treasure Maps
Robins’ have made their own treasure maps to help them find the treasure in school. We wanted to make them look old but we couldn’t believe how many tea bags we used…
