Some additional JMA experiences from Term 1 CCC

The children explored the anatomy of a pumpkin. They used their senses to smell, touch and taste a pumpkin. They are looking forward to planting some of the seeds that they removed and dried out in the Spring. The children explored the local river. They have planted Rowan tree seeds in class and were trying to identify the best place to plant these in the local area when the time comes. They came upon the local river and explored all the plants and trees surrounding it. They then carried out an impromptu science experiment of floating and sinking natural objects along with predicting which materials would move faster towards the waterfall. During one of the sessions in the park, the morning children discovered the hidden garden. They used materials that they found there to create natural dreamcatchers.
