« Friday Letter | Main | Ourselves »
Today was the first day of our TOLC project. Year 2 as well as being Nature Detectives are also going to be conserving our 'wild place'.
Joe and Simon have built us an amazing outdoor classroom so we can be outside whatever the weather.
We began today enhancing our team building skills. It was tricky but with lots of practice we managed to complete all the activities.
Getting ourselves into height order without speaking was tricky but with a little help we got there in the end.
Simon thought we looked like an artistic bunch so thought we would be up to the challenge of making our own natural art. Some of us made mud paintings which were messy but fun. We could even use natural materials such as grass or flowers to add colour to our pictures. Some of us made collages but were tricky to get back to the classroom.
This afternoon we took photographs of our art and pictures of things we thought made our wild place wild. Michael from the CLC showed us how to put our pictures into a Photostory. He has promised he will upload our finished work to the site soon so keep checking the website.
We can't wait to find out what we can do next week. Remember you need old clothes, wellies, waterproofs and a water bottle on Monday.
