Science experiment - How much water does a plant need?

After exploring the concept cartoon and thinking about what a plant needs, we discussed how much water was the "right" amount. On Thursday 19th March we set up an experiment to see if there is a difference between how much water a plant receives to how well it grows. We are going to change the amount of water we give each plant from now on to see what happens.

Planting Wildflower Seeds

On Thursday 19th March we went to the Wild Area again. We thought about what a plant needs to grow and planted some more Wildflower seeds. 

Science - our plant (week 4)

Our plant is growing more and more each day! (19/03/20)

Free phonics online games

They are currently offering free resources to everyone. If you would like to access this fantastic website then please visit www.phonicsplay.co.uk. The username is: march20  and the password is: home.

Welcome to the Red Class learning page.  Here you will find information about home learning.

From Wednesday 18th March 2020 there will be daily activities on this page for the children.

Packs of work will be available to collect from school every two weeks. This will start on Monday 23rd March.

For children at school (emergency childcare) please make sure packs are in book bags as we will complete the tasks at school.

Washing hands 

On Tuesday 17th March we learned more about the importance of washing our hands. We did an experiment that you can try at home. The pepper was microbes which stay on our hands if we don’t wash them with soap. 
The website for other activities regarding washing hands is as follows:

Weaving a rug sample

We had a lovely time creating our rug samples on Tuesday 17th March. There were lots of different ribbon/wool for us to choose from!

Seed germination

Our seeds are growing more and more each day! We are enjoying watching them develop into a plant. 

Design and Technology

On Monday 16th March we went outside to investigate the equipment in our play trail. We explored the different materials the equipment is made from and how the structure is supported/fixed to the ground. We then 'tested' the equipment to check they are stable structures!

Sports Relief

We had lots of fun raising money for Sports Relief today! (13/03/20) We did a sponsored run around the field and kept going even when it was difficult!

Does it matter which way you plant a seed? (week 2)

Today (12/03/20) we looked at our seed experiment and saw 9 shoots. 8 were from seeds which were planted 'the right way up' but 1 was from a seed that was planted 'upside down'. We discussed how this happened and are looking forward to seeing more of our seeds begin to grow.
