Forest School Session 9th May 2017
Forest School Session 5th April 2017
Forest School Session 10th January 2017
As usual, we had an action packed, fun-filled Forest School session this week. In Science we are busily learning about the Weather. We decided that we would make equipment to help us record our observations, so whilst outdoors we worked hard to construct rain gauges and weather vanes. In order to test which direction the wind was blowing in, we used balloons, flags and kites and then checked our results using compasses. In addition, we used thermometers to check the air temperature.
Take a look at our photographs to spot the other fun activities that we participated in!
