Forest School Blog - Tuesday 21st April 2020

Welcome back! We hope you enjoyed the Easter break and made the most of the sunny weather.

How did you get on with spotting the signs of spring? If you have any pictures or diary extracts you would like to share – just email them to your year group email and they will get forwarded onto us.  We can, with your permission, post them.

A few activities you get you started this week

Butterfly Feeder – with the warm weather some of the smallest visitors to our gardens are in need of a little help – butterflies and bees.  You can look online for other ideas…

 

 

Sky Scanner – not very ‘high tech’, but just as enjoyable.  Decorate your own scanner and take time to really look closely at what can you see. How about adapting it to make a flower bed or grass scanner...

 

 

Have found this posted on a school website – with all the talent we have at CRJS, we think we would be in with a good chance of winning – give it a go….

Mrs Tuland’s Veg Patch Watch

Week 5

Well, after coming to an understanding with my little visitor…I feed it cornflakes and he leaves my seeds alone…I have lots to show this week!

As you can see spring has sprung in my greenhouse – I have turnips, tomatoes, broccoli, cucumbers, peppers, sweetcorn, spring onions, beans, peas and onions.  If you look closely, you can see emerging from the initial leaves each plant is starting to grow it’s first proper set of leaves – in a few weeks they will be big enough for me to ‘pot on’. Lettuce and onions are coming to life in the raised beds and potatoes are starting to sprout .

Is anyone else growing plants? Mrs Parrott and Mrs Cherry have now joined in the growing game – why don’t you?

Enjoy the rest of the week - Mrs Cherry will be FS Blogging on Friday
