Parrots Science Investigation

The children in Parrots were all scientists yesterday. Poor Teddy had a hole in his umbrella and we needed to find which would be the best material to fix it. So all of the children conducted an investigation to test whether fabric, paper, tissue or plastic would be the best material to fix Teddy's leaky umbrella. The children all made predictions at the beginning of the investigation. We all discussed and decided what a fair test is and how this is important to our results. We then completed the investigation and wrote a conclusion to say which material was the best. Ask your child and see if they can tell you which material was the best one to fix Teddy's umbrella.

Parrots' Art linked to Geography

The children in Parrots learnt all about the different flags for the United Kingdom. They learnt where these countries are located on a map of the UK along with which flags belong to England, Ireland, Scotland and Wales. Then the children used various different art techniques and re-created the flags using collage, painting, pastels and pointillism. They produced excellent pieces of art - well done Parrots.
