On Monday, we arrived in class to find a note saying 'find your shadow' as well as a lamp, torches and animals to explore. We investigated shadows and discussed how they are made and everyone found their shadow. We then experimented to see what happened to shadows when objects moved closer or further away from the light. The children discovered the nearer something gets to the light, the larger the shadow.  On Tuesday, we discussed if our shadow was our real self, what would our shadow say about us. The children then made shadow puppets of their favourite things to do or play with. We then wrote sentences about our shadow puppets. 

The Bears were challenged to build a snow shelter big enough to house a cuddly teddy. I was so impressed with their innovative designs, teamwork and resilience- they created some fantastic shelters.  Rolling a snow cave  Making bricks for snow walls Snug fit Carving out the cave Snow ball walls Taking shape  Making different rooms Lounging
