Animals in winter
Teacher (teacherone) on: WRENS
This week in science we have been learning about the needs of native birds in winter. We learned that some birds migrate to warmer countries. The birds that stay in the UK need our help to stay alive and healthy. We have been doing detailed drawings of different native birds. We also learned about the foods they like to eat in winter and made some special bird feeders.
Nativity

All the children have a part, some will be reading, some acting, some singing, some drumming and some dancing. We hope to see you all on our Christmas performance days.

Living things

We have been learning about the needs of all living things. We were visited by some turtles and some snakes. We learned lots of new facts! We found out that turtles like to eat shrimp and that snake poo is white! We discovered that snakes shed their skin and that turtles need to have their shells cleaned.
The Crown Jewels

Forest schools
Teacher (teacherone) on: WRENS
We have been learning to use the tools in Forest Schools. We used saws to cut wooden disks then we used drills to make a hole. After that we decorated them and hung them on string to make medals. We had to work together to use the tools safely.
Different types of communication

We have been learning about different ways that people have communicated throughout history. We drew our own cave paintings, communicated with each other via semaphore flags and learned about the life of Alexander Graham Bell.
Forest school fun
Teacher (teacherone) on: WRENS
The Wrens class have had a brilliant time at Forest School. I am so proud of all the wonderful team work I have seen. The children have been helping each other build dens, saw wood, light fires and create guide lines through the woods. They worked together to lift and move heavy logs and helped each other on the swing.
Numbers to 100

We have been using hundred squares to help us with our maths this week. We made our own number lines, filled in missing numbers and played race to 100.
