What great fun the children had on their first trip to the Denes! The children explored the local environment looking for signs of autumn.
Jacob – “The leaves have fallen on the floor.”
Rebecca – “They changed colour to red and brown and yellow!”
Alana – “We might find some conkers!”
Orla- “Trees are important cos they give us oxygen. We have to look after them!”
Cassie “I even sawed purple leaves.”
The children used some of their senses to describe their environment:
Sophie –“I can smell the flowers.”
Eddie – “I can hear a truck”
Eric – “I see trees”
Lucy – “I can smell fire!”
Using a compass, we looked North, East, South and West and sketched what we could see.
Once back at school, the children mapped their walk.
