We enjoyed looking at our home-made rain gauges today, which had filled up SO MUCH we had to empty them to start recording again (probably most it from last night!) They are definitely helping us answer the question ‘Does it rain more in the Autumn than the Summer?’

Outdoor fun
We’ve been making the most of the beautiful weather by spending lots of time outside.
RE day
We enjoyed learning all about creation this week. We started by creating interesting things in the classroom out of a range of materials, from lego to play dough and then thought about how we should treat each other’s creations carefully. We went on a scavenger hunt outside (in the rain!) to find natural items that …

Patterns
