This week in expedition, we have been comparing Cleethorpes and Carcroft! We have been using our noticing lense and talking about what we could see, and how we feel when we visited each place. Have a look about what we thought about each place and our comparisons…
Crew MW’s trip to Cleethorpes
Crew MW had a wonderful day on Monday! We got on a coach and went to visit Cleethorpes! As part of our expedition learning, we wanted to experience the seaside and the difference between Carcroft and Cleethorpes. We spent the day playing in the sand, building sand castles, paddling, playing with the parachute and talking about what we could see. It was so lovely to see so many happy, excited faces as we explored! We can’t wait to do our writing about what we saw.
Making our predictions in Expedition
This morning, we looked at the front cover of our new story for Case Study 1 – Why is the seaside a special place? We started by saying what we noticed using the picture on the front cover and the title of the story to help us. Here’s what we came up with…
After reading the story, we talked about how the children felt at each point in the book. We used lots of new vocabulary such as, excited, joyful and giddy to describe how the children were feeling. We can’t wait to find out more about the seaside!
Messy Play
Some of the nursery children enjoyed playing with different sensory textures this morning during provision and getting messy with the shaving foam! Shaving foam is definitely a firm favourite of the crew! The children used words like sticky, slimey, soft and messy to describe the different textures.
