Forest School - Autumn Term 1 2014/2015
Year 1 – Mrs Carter’s Class
Session 1
Our
first session was a tidy up session as Forest School had become untidy over the
summer holidays. We took the litter
pickers with us and had a good tidy up.
With so many helpers it didn’t take long to get Forest School looking
the way we like it.
Our
apple trees had some lovely looking apples on them and the hedge had lots of
blackberries on. Picking the fruit was
one of our activities. Mrs Mills then
washed them for us and we tried the fruit during break. It doesn’t get any fresher than that!
Session 2
Session
2 was all about using our observations skills.
We chose a photograph from a selection and had to find the object in
Forest School. It really made us look
carefully at our surroundings.
We
also carried on our tidying up from last week.
A big pile of branches had become overgrown so we tried getting as many
of them out from the grass. Some of them
were really tangled up so teamwork really helped when we were dragging them
out.
There
was also time to look for minibeasts.
There are lots of frogs in Forest School this year and we know which
logs they like hiding under. Some of us
held the frogs but we did make sure that we put them back where we found them. Making potions using mud and rain water was
as popular as ever as well. No wonder we
were ready for a drink and a snack at break time!
