Bitterns Activities

The Bitterns have been recognising and choosing coins to make up varying amounts to buy toys in the online toy shop!

The BItterns had an inspiring DT visit from The Norwich Puppet Theatre today and participated in a super workshop where they created the most incredibly created puppets.  The afternoon was spent with the puppets interacting with each other in the form of puppet shows in the Nest.  What a fantastic day!

The Bitterns have set up a weather station and are using a range of meteorological instruments to observe and record weather patterns in answer to our geography question:  What is the weather like in the UK?

An exciting week for the Bitterns, as we got to sand and prime our Gogo giraffe and work in collaboration with our artist, Josie Smyth.

This week, the Bitterns delved into a lively hot-seating activity, interviewing Mr. and Mrs. Twit – where Mr. Twit showcased his dreadful manners by refusing to knock, snacking on bits from his beard, and slouching improperly in his chair – all in preparation for writing diary entries in the first person!

The Bitterns have been busily measuring and comparing lengths and heights with metre sticks this week.

The Bitterns have Roald Dahl in our spotlight this half term.  This week we have enjoyed a few amusing extracts from The Twits, sketching whilst listening to Dahl’s entertaining description, in preparation for our character profiles next week.

The Bitterns enjoyed a fantastic ‘Bonfire Night’ special Forest School session, learning about fire safety, roasting marshmallows, making s’mores and getting creative with a bit of poetry!

A big thank you to Mrs Grieve for making it so inspiring!
