Science - all about roots 🌱🌷

This afternoon in Science, we were investigating the different types of roots.  We looked at taproots and fibrous roots. We focussed on the structures and features. We compared and observed their features including the xylem using microscopes.

In French, we have be learning the days of the week. I introduced the children to a song in which they have been learning and preformed today. It is rather catchy and will most definitely get stuck in your head (apologies) 🇫🇷

Babbling Vagabonds 🎭

This morning , the Babbling Vagabonds joined us and took us on a storytelling walk through Taddington. We walked up to the Taddington High Well and took in the views over the village creating stories of who lived here and recalling our previous character Mr Taddy.  Once we were back, we looked at a map of Taddington and pin pointed where we lived.  What a wonderful way to spend our morning!                

Recycling in schools ♻️

Image
Today, we had some special visitors from Derby Dales District Council to educate us on recycling.  We discussed a range of waste and recycling services and why it is so important.  We discussed ways in which we can improve our own recycling rate throughout school.  Following our discussions, the children got to experience controlling a recycling vehicle and see how it all works.
