Snowy Day
Snowy days are great fun!!
Can you make a snowman? (think about what you could use for the eyes? What shape would you like the nose to be? Would your snowman like to wear a hat?
Can you lie down in the snow and make a snow angel?
Can you follow footprints? Where will the footprints take you?!
Can you find a stick and mark make in the snow. I wrote a special message, my favourite number and drew some shapes. What marks can you make?
How does the snow feel?
what colour is it?
Does snow have a smell?
These are just some ideas of the great learning that can take place while outside in the snow.
Please share your snowy day photos with bhippe@edubuzz.org or lmartin2@edubuzz.org.
We would love to see your learning on this fantastic snowy day.
Have fun ☃️☃️☃️☃️
Question of the Day
Do all penguins live in cold places?
Penguin drawing
Izmay really enjoyed listening to Mrs MacArthur reading the story “Lost and Found”. Izmay has drawn a beautiful picture of a penguin. She even tried really hard to write her name. Great learning Izmay.
Izmay has her very own penguin at home called “Gordon”. Aww he looks lovely and very cuddly!
Question of the Day
We have got two questions for you today.
- Do you know where the coldest place in the world is?
- What animals live in really cold places?
Nursery Challenge
We have recently been thinking about which season it is and some of the signs we might see when it is winter. One of the signs we have been noticing is that lots of ice has been forming in many different places, here are some of the places we have found it :
- Mrs Hippe has found it on the inside of her car windows.
- Mrs Wilson has found it on her car, in pots and containers in her garden
- Mrs Flockhart has found it in her flower tubs and can see it on top of her shed
- Mrs MacArthur found the water in their bird bath frozen
- Mrs Blair has found it in her garden pond
- Mrs Martin has found it on her car window
Have you found any ice anywhere?
Today’s Challenge is:
- find out how ice is made
- make your own ice – inside or outside
- find out what happens when it melts – can you predict how long it will take
- what could you do to make ice melt quicker
Let us know how you get on.
