We had a great time at South Lakes Safari Zoo! We stroked a snake, fed the monkeys and giraffes and saw lots of other animals.

This morning, Lancaster Fire and Rescue Service came to visit us. We learned about what they do and ways to be safe at home.

This afternoon, we took part in a special PE session of crown green bowling with Coach Dan. It was great fun. Lotty won the Bowl of the Day.

This afternoon, we were using the programme Scratch to code an animation about Goldilocks.

This afternoon, we were looking at items from the past and trying to decide which ones helped us to learn facts about Florence Nightingale when she lived so long ago.

This afternoon, we were investigating axles to make a moving vehicle with junk modelling materials.

We have had a brilliant World Book Day. We have read loads and had fun!
 

This afternoon, Year 3 were looking for woodlice in the school grounds. We looked in lots of areas - behind the outdoor classroom, in the garden, around the climbing frame and we recorded our findings in a table. 
 

This afternoon, we were creating polka dots using different art mediums. We used oil pastels, paint, felt tips and pencil crayons. We used the stippling technique and circling to create the dots. 
 

This morning, we were dancing like monkeys and moving like we were in the jungle. It was great fun. 
 

Today, Year 2 started learning about multiplication. We were seeing how we could make equal groups with 20 counters.

This afternoon, we were sketching our self portraits. We used sketching pencils (lots of excitement occurred!) to be able to be more accurate with our lines and shapes and the light and dark parts of our face.
