Read your RWI book. You can find virtual RWI books on the Oxford Owl website. There are 3 for each colour. We recommend reading the same book for a week to build confidence and fluency.
You will need to set up a free parents account on the Oxford Owl website to access the resources.
Feel free to save until the weekend/holidays - we'd love to see photos if you do give it a go.
Our plan for Wonder Wood was to decorate a tree, making our own icy Christmas decorations.
Could you make an ice decoration or decorations for a tree in your garden? Please see Mrs Stollery's photos. All you need is a recycled container (any shape), some string or ribbon, water, different colour leaves etc from outside, a freezer.
Possible discussions/lines of exploration
How long do you think your decoration will last?
What happened to your decoration? Why?
Is there a better time of day to put up your decoration?
Is there a better season to put up these decorations?
Did the height of your decoration make a difference? (high branch vs low branch)
Did the type of tree make a difference? (hang the decoration on a deciduous and evergreen tree - which one lasts longest?)
What will happen if it rains on my decoration?
Vocabulary:- melt(ed), freeze, predict, deciduous, evergreen, winter, summer, weather, season
