We have been busy this term, the spring and summer terms are always exciting as the children see changes around them. Spotting busy bees leads to questions and creates opportunities for us to find out new things - what do bees make? we use books and search engines to find the answers and to do a little baking to taste some delicious honey on our home made bread rolls - we want children to be active in their learning, we encourage questions we love watching them turn into little researchers.
Frogs and Butterflies - who doesn't like exploring the life cycles of frogs and butterflies? Some great books out there to support their understanding which leads to some fun activities - The Hungry Caterpillar by Eric Carle is always a favourite.
We look forward to a little summer sun in our last part of the summer term
