• Friday 14 February 2025 Acorns Fab Finish Spring 1 We had a fun day reflecting on our learning in this half term. This included being environmental superheroes and reusing our classroom waste in our art projects and started experimenting with joining using split pins to make our recycled creations move. We were pondering on what might happen if our school banned paper. The children came up with very creative solutions to replace books, paper - even toilet paper! We also wrote kenning poems to reflect on our learning about vertebrates and put the structure of eggs to test by standing on them. To our great relief, nobody got eggy socks!
