The beach in winter.

Hello everyone,
This week we are going to explore and discover who and what lives at the beach and what kind of things you can find there.
At the same time the children are going to use the computer to find some information about sea turtles and other sea creatures.


We are going to look at seaweed, shells, stones and driftwood, and use them to make patterns and pictures.
We are also going to have fun with our metal detectors, using them in the sand tray with lots of objects you find on the beach, talking about if they are metal, natural objects, plastics etc.


To start the week we have some pictures of sea turtles Harry Norman brought in and some shells and cuttlefish I found when I went with Mr Gibson to have a look at the beach for our project. We will be looking at those with the children and listening to what they have to say about them.
We also have 2 more trips to the library this week, when the children will be looking for books to help us with our project.


(fingers crossed for better weather!)
