Winter walk 6th February

Winter Walk

One of our topics in Science is seasonal changes. Last term we went on a walk around the village looking for signs of Autumn. Today we went in search of signs of Winter. 
Children made some interesting observations and they supported each others learning by explaining reasons for their observations. 

 We needed to be wrapped up warm, with a hat, scarf, gloves and coat, so that we would keep warm on our walk.
 All the leaves have disappeared from the trees, apart from the evergreen trees!
 We found a thin layer of ice on the bike shed.
 The ground felt hard. The children suggested that this was because it was so cold that it was frozen.
 There was ice in the tyres!
Miss Roberts was very brave to hold up the ice so that everyone could see it.


 The play equipment felt slippery because of the thin layer of ice.




It was very cold, we were glad to get into the warm classroom.
