Here are some of their reflections:
"We worked as a team planting wildflowers for the King." Minnie
"The food from the garden goes into the kitchen and in our food." Cora
"We grow lots of fruit and vegetables." Alex
"We used different sized seeds for different flowers." Isaac
"I've learnt that we compost the grass for it to go back in the garden."
We celebrated Roald Dahl's birthday this week by exploring some of his wonderful work. Roald Dahl is famous for his children's books, but he is also famous for his poems. We started the week by exploring the poem, The Dentist and the Crocodile. Later on in the week, we looked at Fantastic Mr Fox and The BFG. We have been developing our retrieval skills through a quick quiz, seeing how much we can remember from what has been read.
There are four zones that can be used to describe how your brain and body feel:
Blue Zone - Your body is running slow, you may feel tired, sick, sad or bored.
Green Zone - This is when you are "good to go." You may feel happy, calm, and focused.
Yellow Zone - This is when you start to lose control. You need to proceed with caution and slow down. You may feel overwhelmed, frustrated, silly, wiggly, excited, worried, anxious or surprised.
Red Zone - This is when you might feel out of control. It is for extreme emotions such as anger, aggression, terror and elation. It's important to stop to regulate your emotions when you are in this zone.
