Bug Hotels

We have been learning about the habitats of different minibeasts and finding out where different minibeasts like to live. We then went out onto the field and made bug hotels using boxes, tubes and natural materials.

We played yard games outside, such as ‘cath, cath, ci’ and ‘Mae Siemon yn dweud’

We made St David’s Day cards to send to members of our family.

We completed activities on Hwb and some mindfulness activities relating to St. David’s Day.

World Book Day!

Dosbarth Eryr and Dosbarth Gwennol have enjoyed celebrating World Book Day by reading the story ‘we’re going on a bear hunt’ by Michael Rossen.

After we read the story, we all went on a bear hunt on the field.

We then thought carefully about the equipment that we would need if we were to go on a bear hunt again. We chose 5 items and we listed them.

We made a story map to help us retell the story. We collected natural materials to help us make our story map.
