Spring adventures in J4!

18th Mar 2021

Our topic this term is 'Where my Wellies take me' based on the storybook by Clare Morpurgo and Michael Morpurgo. In the story the character Pippa, adventures into the countryside as Spring is beginning to blossom, to experience the signs of new life in the fields, hedgerows, by the river and in the meadow.

Each week this term J4 have been exploring the signs of Spring in each of these places just like Pippa. Over the weeks we have designed our own spring gardens using natural resources and playdough, created Spring soup using Spring nature items and investigated the parts of plants and vegetables. For Science week we explored how greenhouses help plants to grow and made our very own mini-greenhouses for our cress seeds to grow. We enjoyed the responsibility to check these seeds each day and give them a little water. We were so surprised at how fast our seeds grew!

We hope you enjoy looking at some of our activities and learning experiences so far this term.
