Class 1 – Hunting for plants

Class 1 spent some time finding and naming plants this afternoon.  We learnt that some plants have flowers and produce seeds that then grow into new plants.  We learnt about the life cycle of a dandelion and we learnt the names of some plants, flowers and trees.  We found daisies, dandelions, bluebells and stinging nettles.

We looked at the leaves on our beautiful  copper beech tree and the flowers on the horse chestnut tree.  Spring is a beautiful time of year to take our learning outside and make the most of our wonderful outside space.

Sadly we found some litter on the playground but picked it up and then used this opportunity to talk about looking after our world and our environment and being responsible.  Everyone agreed that we are lucky to have such a lovely school and that we should all do our best to look after it and keep it clean and tidy.

We even found some egg shells.
