 We had a special outing to Herstmonceux Observatory Science Centre this week. Vin and his friend had a lot of fun investigating all the displays and experiments. We enjoyed watching a talk and demonstrations about materials, including a hydrogen explosion! We listened to a talk about the telescopes too.



At communigrow the children all went round the field looking at some of the herbs and plants that they could use to cook with that day. They all chose an assortment of leaves and made pesto to enjoy with some pasta. They also gathered some salad vegetables and made a salad.





We did an Andy's wild workout set in the rainforest and a Cosmic Kids Yoga adventure Club with a mermaids and pirates theme.

We read about Vikings in Vinnie's mystery in time magazine and Vinnie also got a book from his room about Vikings so we could read some other facts and compare. We did the quiz and some of the puzzles. Vin had fun writing lots of words in Viking runes.



We did the animal gallery room in Vinnie's escape room book.


We got a big stash of books from the library this week!

 This is our last week of the year before we take 3 weeks off for Christmas and New Year. Our week started with something a bit unusual - snow! We went sledging, built a snow gorilla, had snowball fights and of course, as per our theme, built snow castles! Our theme for article of the week this week is all about the lead up to the Age of Exploration. We read about the travels of Marco Polo, the methods used for navigation, the spice trade, and the new ships the Europeans started making in the Middle Ages to help them travel longer distances. We had some more fun with numbers. We practiced more adding and subtracting within 20 and tried out some different methods of making it easier when subtracting such as breaking the number down so you can get to an easier number first then subtract the rest. We played sum bingo, a sum matching memory game, a number bonds to 20 matching memory game, and a game where we had to find the missing number to add to make a total and do that many of an a...

 A bit of a quieter week this week as we had a few family things to do. We made some lego stop motion videos. We found the youtube channel of the person from the legocon thing we watched last week and got some tips and inspiration. Then we set up our scenes and made our own. We played with lots of lego too, watched some octonauts, played some games.  We went out to a new nature area with some friends and we identified some creatures we found using google lens on the app. We think this guy is a lesser stag beetle. The first 2 strawberries from our garden were ready to eat! We also went to a wedding and Vin had fun playing with some children there.

 This week we did some more activities about money. We practiced identifying coins and adding them up. We played Ed and Bunny go shopping. Vinnie filled in an activity sheet with lots of addition and subtraction of money. V read a couple of story books about people saving money and raising money. We also did some white rose maths activities. We did the letterbox lab experiment making a rubber band helicopter. We tried out different things to find out the best balance between size and weight of the helicopter compared to the blades.  Vinnie did some pages from his handwriting book, his comprehension activities book and his spelling practice book.  He drew some lovely fun pictures. He is very inspired by Sonic the Hedgehog at the moment so has drawn some fun scenes with the characters from the games and cartoons. We did some puzzles together. Vinnie chose some mini mysteries to watch on mystery science, we enjoyed watching about how lego bricks were invented, and why people...
