A visit to William’s Den with Louis.

Louis had a fantastic day out at William’s den with his Dad. He completed a really long woodland walk and learnt about lots of animals. He learnt the names of some wild flowers and then took them home to put in a vase.

                             The snails seem to be enjoying the rain.

Learning the names of wild flowers.

What a lovely walk.

Louis learnt about Tawny owls.

I wonder what’s over here?

Louis loved learning about animals in

the “forest jungle”

Home learning with Ben

Home learning for Ben this week was the perfect mix of indoor and outdoor learning fun.

Going outdoors to hunt for natural and human made materials.

What a very lucky Dad!

This week Ben has been looking at sound buttons

when reading works. He went on a treasure hunt

following clues around his house.

Can you see the sound buttons?

Ben used a real map to see if he could find any map symbols.

This sound button activity looks great fun.

Can you read these words?

Which word do you think describes Ben?

I love this real money activity.

Get it right and you will win a treat.

This is a super way to learn which capital 

letters math the lower case ones.

We have lots of interesting churches, shops, schools, Drax power station, and houses including Carlton towers. Choose a landmark that interests or is special to you. What do you know about it?

Why is it special to you? When was it built? Can you draw it? Could you make a model of it using boxes or Lego?
