Science 

November 2024

In Elm class during our Science lessons we have been learning about the seasons. So far we have learnt about autumn and winter.

We have made autumn and winter trees using different colours of paint onto bare trees. Oranges, reds and yellows for falling leaves and wintery blues and greys for frost on branches.

We have listened to seasons songs, been into our outdoor woods collecting leaves and explored ice in our tuff tray. The children have engaged really well in these lessons and loved exploring new things.

In Elm class we love listening to stories. During our Phonics lessons we have been listening to environmental sounds. Our story this week was all about the animals on a farm and the sounds they make. We listened to the story and used the sound buttons to make the animal sounds. We then explored the animal props, linked to the story. We listened to two different sounds and tried to guess which animal made that sound. Some of us were very good at identifying which animal made the sound. Some of us just liked exploring the book and the animals.
