This week we carried out our investigation to find out which material would be best to make a tent for a teddy. The children built their tents and then used pipettes to drop water onto the materials. Year 1 found that the best material was plastic as it was the most waterproof!

In English, we have been looking at the story 'The Gingerbread Man'. The children created their own designs and used adjectives to describe them. The children were then given their own gingerbread man to decorate. They all looked very tasty!

We investigated our sense of taste this week. The children were given different jellies and had to guess what the taste was. It was tricky as each jelly had changed colour so the children had to rely on their taste buds and not their eyes. It was a lot of messy fun!

In computing, children continue to practise and improve their key skills. They already seem a lot more confident at logging on using their own usernames and passwords, as well as being able to locate the correct program. Once logged on, the children had a go at creating pictures from our book this week, The Three Little Pigs. Can you guess what has been drawn?

In Science, we have been learning about our senses. Today we investigated how good our sense of hearing is. The children were played twelve different sounds and they had to guess what was making each sound. Some were quite tricky!
