We all enjoyed our walk in the woods this morning. It was nice to spend some time together, get some exercise in the fresh air and observe some of the seasonal changes.
We collected lots of specimens to identify and 
classify in the classroom.
Please see Google Classroom for home learning activities.
Today, we have worked on Mental Health Day activities.
This morning, we made leaflets about ways to cope with negative feelings; mindfulness colouring, meditation on imoves and celebrated what is good in our lives.
This afternoon we made origami book marks and listened to calming music.
It’s been a very enjoyable day!
We have been studying Henri Rousseau’s amazing rainforest paintings this week. We learned about his life – he didn’t even train as a painter!
Then we chose a painting and used a viewfinder to select part of it to sketch, then 
paint. We carefully mixed the colours to match the original.
We enjoyed spending the morning reading and writing poems. Mrs Marsh came in to read some of her favourite poems to us.
We read a poem called ‘Granny is…’ and then wrote our own poems about special people in our families. They were fantastic and are now on display outside the classroom. Well done everyone!
