Today we had our class trip to Nell Bank using the focus book Tidy by Emily Gravett.
We have had the best day learning about Pete the Badger who likes things very neat and tidy all the time. We did some litter picking and sorted out the rubbish into things we could recycle and not. We were fantastic at this job because we already do it in our class. Just before lunch we went on a minibeast hunt, we used ‘insect extractions tools’ that looked like spoons to search for minibeast with legs and ones that slither. This was quite tricky because it has been so dry, but we didn’t give up and found a few.
After a quick lunch stop we had the best time in the water area using the water wheels and pumps and then we went for a walk in the woods where we worked in small groups to make some little homes for the baby badgers. We did a great job and the baby badgers were well protected.
We had the best day, it was so much fun!
