This week we made cards for the Queen, explored money in Maths and learnt all about the United Kingdom including using the colours of our flag in baking cakes. To celebrate such a monumental event in British History we learnt a song about the Queens likes and jobs.
Each week we love our forest sessions. We explore the principle of plan-do-review where we decide what we are going to do and write a list of equipment we need to help us to prepare for our session.
The children have been fine tuning their measuring skills using trundle wheels, rulers and metre sticks.

In maths, we have been learning about symmetry. Using mirrors and folding pieces of papers, we have explored what symmetry is and how to find lines of symmetry.
