Science week in The Hive 🐝👨‍🔬

How To Keep Our Bodies Healthy🏃🏼‍♀️🏃🏼‍♂️🍇🍎🍒🍉

Welcome back! I hope you all had an amazing holiday😁. We kick started our Summer Term with a Science project week. For our first week back we focused on our topic ‘How to keep our bodies healthy’

The children have enjoyed their learning and have developed an understanding of the importance of making healthy choices, such as food and exercise.

PSED – We learnt to become increasingly independent in meeting our own needs. For example, brushing our teeth, using the toilet and washing and drying our hands thoroughly.

PD – The children were practical when ‘cleaning the teeth’. We talked through what we are doing and for how long.

C&L – A tub tray was set out using a Venn Diagram, this had two categories ‘healthy and unhealthy’ snacks. The children were encouraged to select a healthy and a unhealthy snack using key words and place this in the right place.

We added dirty plastic toys to the tub tray and asked the children to help get them clean. We developed our language by talking about what we are doing and why in relation to health and hygiene.

C&L – The children used a range of clothes to dress a teddy bear with. We discussed what the teddy would wear on a hot day vs a cold day. We developed this language through play.
