We were really looking forward to today visit as we were taking P2/3 down to the woods with us. We got put into partners and we had to make sure the older one was on the outside nearest the road and we also talk to our partner the whole way to the woods. We spoke to them about the John Muir award and how important it is to us.
We also thought it was very important to talk to them about baby trees. We told them how they have to be careful that they don’t step on them or pull them out because they are nature and needs time to grow to be big trees.
We couldn’t wait to show our partners our special spots so as soon as we got in Miss Whitefield said we could go to our special spots.
“My partner thought it was really comfy and he really like it.” Eilidh
“My partner thought my special spot was very quiet.” Zoe
“My partner thought my special spot was cool because it was the perfect size for her.” Iona
“My partner thought it was very comfy and that it was perfect for two people as there was two seats.” Beth
We had a big double class discussion about what we felt about the woods and what we notices. The P2/3’s were very sad to see the burnt trees and logs. We spoke to them about how we were making posters to stick up and tell people to look after the woods.
Next it was finally time to find some bugs. We used some bug finding equipment and spoke to our partner about what makes a good bug habitat.
“Me and my partner worked together and spoke about where to look for bugs.” Zoe
“Me and my partner looked under logs and found lots of slugs.” Iona
“Me and my partner worked with another pair and we worked together as a team to see where we could find the most bugs.” Beth
“I really enjoyed the woods because it was really fun to find out where Rhy’s special spot was.” Katie
“The woods are fun and exciting.” Natasha
“The woods were very exciting because we got to find out something new about where some bugs live.” Ayva
“The woods were great and Bailey found me my own special spot. I found lots of spiders and a giant worm.” Ross
