Week 3
This week continue to observe the weather and look for signs of winter. Depending on what weather we get, try any of the following: walk in the rain, jump in puddles, use a magnifying glass to look at raindrops, frost, ice, make more snowmen, snowballs and make marks in the frost.

Week 2
This week continue to observe the weather and look for signs of winter. Depending on what weather we get, try any of the following: walk in the rain, jump in puddles, use a magnifying glass to look at ice, make more snowmen, snowballs and make marks in the frost. A little girl in our class told me on Friday that Elsa made the frost last week, not Jack Frost! What do you think?
I didn’t get a chance to make my rain cloud in a jar but I’m going to try this week.

SNOW
Week 1
Our new topic is 'Winter'.
Click on the link below to talk about signs of Winter.
As part of our winter topic we will be looking at weather. Over the Christmas period we had wind, rain, snow and frost. Look at the weather over the course of this week, especially when you are out for a walk - what do you notice?
Rain
To link with our Literacy (sound 'r') we will be learning to recite the poem 'Raindrops'. Talk about rain / rain clouds and try to find out what makes it rain. I've included a little science experiment below on how to make your own rain cloud in a jar. Don't worry if you can't get blue food colouring, any colour will do. I'm going to have a go myself! Have fun.
