The Early Years Unit - 23rd - 27th April

This half term in the Early Years Unit (EYU) we are learning all about growth.  Despite the rain preventing us going on our spring walk, we have had lots of fun this week.  Here is a little taster...

The Fruit and Veg Shop

First we write a shopping list.

 

Then we choose the fruit and veg and put it in the trolley.

Finally we pay at the till.

Planting Beans

God asks us to care for his world.  This week the children planted some beans.  We are going to take care of them and if we are patient, one day soon, we will have some bean stalks (hopefully without any castles at the top)!

Threading

The children had to thread the roots into the ground so the plants would grow tall and strong.

String Painting

The children dipped string into some paint and enjoyed making patterns on the paper.  They thought it looked like the roots of plants as they grow underground.
