This week we have been learning about minibeasts, particularly frogs. Throughout the week we have learnt what a frog is, what they look like, what they like eating, where they live and some interesting facts. After using the internet and non-fiction books to find our information, we gathered the information into a fact sheet using drawings to help us recall the different facts.
On Wednesday we visited our school pond to see the habitat of a frog. We scooped up some water into a tray and found some tadpoles that were living in the pond. Remembering the life cycle, we knew that they would soon turn into froglets, first growing their back legs and then their front legs.
In maths we have been focusing on positions of an object, using language such as in between, in front, behind, on and under. In phonics we have been revisiting what rhyming is and suggesting some of our own rhymes. In our explore learning time we have been drawing our self-portrait, using mirrors to look at our features and colours.
