Parrots' Science
The children in Parrots have been exploring different materials. They have been identifying different properties of these materials and describing them based on the properties. We have discussed properties such as: absorbent, transparent, hard, smooth, soft. The children enjoyed playing the 'Guess What is in the Bag Game' where children described an object based on its properties and by using this information the others guessed what the object was. Great fun - you could play this at home.

The children in Parrots had a wonderful Roald Dahl day. We predicted what different Roald Dahl stories were about and then listened to different snippets before voting on our favourite and writing about why the beginning of this book would make us want to read on.
