It’s Healthy Eating Week this week so we took part in a live lesson where we learnt about how to eat more healthily. We also discussed how to create less food waste and how to use any food waste we do have rather than putting it in the bin. We then enjoyed some fresh fruit and vegetables...yummy!
In Craft Club this week, we used candles to draw wax pictures on a piece of paper and then painted over using watercolours. The paint didn’t colour the wax so our pictures were clear.
It’s time to choose our class School Council rep for next year! Lots of children wanted to go for it! We listened to each child, who told us about why they thought they would make a good School Council rep and then voted for the child we thought would do a great job. Congratulations Lexi!
We continued our Geography topic of Brazil by finding out information about Brazil and the people that live there.
5th - 9th June. We hope you had a restful half term! This week we were lucky to be visited by the Carnivals In Somerset Promotion Project who brought along their van for us to sit in to learn about the history of carnival in Somerset. We were also pleased they brought hundreds of costumes from previous carnivals for us to dress up in! It was so much fun and we learnt a lot. This links well with our Geography topic, Brazil.
Craft Club! We made pinwheels today in Craft Club. We folded the paper and glued sections together to create a circle which we then decorated using water colour paint.
