The Creation of the World

This was the focal point of our Topic work
in the first half term. It was a great opportunity to learn about 
the wonderful world we live in.
Among other activities these were some of the highlights:

Let there be Light!  -   Exploring light and dark.





God separated the waters above and below an expanse.                               This is how we made the water under the heavens. We made sure the strips of paper were aligned to one side on the paper. Once it was dry we printed different circular shapes to make the foam and bubbles across the top.


On Day 3 God made the dry land appear and ordered that grass and trees should grow. We found a fun way to make trees.

For the 4th day we used milk to make
some stars for our Milky Way.












We made some moons from cheese, inspired by Wallace and Gromit's Grand Day Out. We thought it was very funny to think that the moon could be made of Cheddar, Stilton or....  Queijo da Serra!

Day 5 - We had a closer look at fish in the primary kitchen.

Rodrigo was inspired by all that talk on fish
and drew this picture.



















We explored the BIRD page at www.poissonrouge.com












The school library had lots of books on mammals. 
We took some books on loan so we could find out more about mammals at home.
Mr Evans came to visit our class. He said, "Good morning children."
We said, "Good morning Mr. Evans, you are a mammal! 
We are all mammals!"
These are our drawings of ourselves in our wonderful world.
