Year 1
Year 1 WOW day – Get your wellies on!
Year 1 had a fantastic WOW day this week! We had lots of fun becoming scientists and looking at leaves and roots up close using magnifying glasses. The children also created some super chalk drawings of flowers. Children were very careful to create their artwork, looking closely at the different parts of the flowers and replicating these. We also spent lots of time outside! We planted some new flowers and fruit and explored the forest. We discovered mini beasts and talked about where they live and the im-portant jobs these play for our plants and soil.
‘We took weeds out and had a fun day. I found two worms!’ Theo, C1
‘We went outside and made a collage.’ Sophie, W1
‘My favourite bit was playing in the woods because I climbed the Trees.’ Toby, C1
