Bee Aware Month!

September is Bee Aware month. What are you doing to help the bees? Room 1 are going to grow flower seeds that attract bees. Do you want to plant some of these at home? Have a look at the link below to find out what seeds to plant. We are going to transform the garden by the playhouse outside Room 1 too.

Inquiry time continues in Room 1...

We have had a busy week and some of us are finally finished what we have been working on. Have a look at Odin's popplet.

1. Worms will eat it (the food scraps).
2. Can you stop dropping rubbish?
3. Can you only pick up rubbish.



Here is our first Puppet Show/story telling nearly ready to go. This is their first attempt in front of the class before they make a background and get a friend to video them.

Room 1 Sustainability M.I Inquiry time!

We have spent the last two terms learning all about looking after our environment. Today we started the 'sorting out' part of our inquiry where we use what we have learnt to teach others. It was very busy but everyone enjoyed it! We talked about the different ways people like to learn. We all chose a learning style we enjoy the most to share our learning. Here are some of the things we chose to do...
 
Using Popplet...

 
We reused old paper and card to make our posters and puppets.

Worms, worms and more worms!

Room 1 have been learning about how worms help our garden. They also help us by eating our left over food and turning it into food for our soil. Have a look at our worm pictures and read our worm facts and stories.
