Computing

Our computer skills are really developing. Today we had a go at inserting images and practised our typing on the keyboard to write instructions for planting a seed.

We wanted to share some of the fantastic science work the children have been doing. Last week we worked as a key stage to find and then identify a range of common plants located on the school grounds. The children looked really closely at the different shapes and patterns on the leaves and started to make comparisons between the different plants.

The children are really enjoying taking part in the different activities each week. So far we have done construction, paper plate craft and nature collages. Here are some of the fantastic collages that were made.
