Polar Adventures

Welcome back after a fantastic Christmas holidays! The children have been telling us all about the amazing memories they have made and how lucky they have been. The children have returned to school with a fantastic attitude and are excited to learn about our new topic, Polar Adventures. 

The children have already prepared to go on a journey to the Arctic. We have thought about the animals they will see and what we will need to take with us. Take a look at our own map we have made of the Arctic:

When we got to the Arctic, we saw some amazing lights! 

We saw the colours blue, orange, green, yellow and pink. These are called the Northern Lights and you can only see them in the Arctic. 

Can you see our smudged patterns we have made to look like the lights?

In maths, we have been learning to measure the weight of things. We have used balancing scales to compare the weight of different items in the classroom. We have also been using small weights to help us bake some delicious cakes!

Because you can't learn to weigh ingredients without making a cake!
