We celebrated World Book Day sharing stories with Mrs Parkhouse who read some of the stories she has written. We also had a visit from Gerald the Giraffe who came to read his favourite books with the children.
This term the children have been developing their physical skills during their PE time in the hall. They have been rolling and catching balls, throwing bean bags and travelling with control, negotiating space and speed.
The children made pancakes at the beginning of the term and worked hard to flip them before eating them all up for their snack. They were delicious!
Term 4
At the end of our learning about animals Pear Tree class visited a local farm to meet the animals. The children were able to hold the chickens, feed the horses and goats, say hello to the donkeys and the llama.  
Our learning at the moment is all about dinosaurs. Thea and Gianna-Mai went on a dinosaur hunt using the magnifying glasses. During adult-directed learning the children were asked to draw a picture of a dinosaur by looking at the toy dinosaurs. They had to pay close attention to the different details and characteristics of the different dinosaurs.
We have begun the term by exploring creative materials and different ways of using them in our learning. The children have found different ways of applying paint using a range of resources.
