We have had a very exciting week because we have been doing a lot of things for the first time!  On Thursday Red Group were in Forest School.  It was tricky to put on our new splash suits, but most of the children had a good try.  We explored the forest then had hot chocolate and marshmallows in the fire circle.  Also, some of our new children have been my Special Helper and have done a good job.  It’s such and important job, everyone gets a turn!

Today we found some mushrooms growing in Forest School so the children talked about how they are dangerous and what we need to do if we find them.  The children cut and stuck pictures of our mushrooms and other mushrooms into the floor book and talked about what to do when we found them.

 

The afternoon children decided that they wanted to go on a worm exploring adventure.  We found lots of different sizes of worms, big long ones and skinny small ones.  We collected lots in a bucket and they children had a great time playing with them and measuring them.

 

All of the children sat round the campfire and revisited the campfire rules.  They were fantastic at remembering the campfire rules so we lit the campfire and the children toasted their own marshmallows!
