The Size of Wales workshop - Maint Cymru!

Today Year 3 & 4 were visited by Elin from The Size of Wales to deliver a workshop about rainforests and climate change. We have been working on rainforests within our mantle so a lot of the information felt familiar to us. We learnt more about the issues with the ingredient ‘palm oil’ and how our day-to-day lives can impact of the tropical rainforests. 


Did you know that tropical rainforests that equal 9 times the size of Wales are cut down every year? We can make small changes to help with this, such as buying a Fairtrade product once a week, baking at home (who knew baking could save lives?) using sustainable ingredients etc. And if you see this symbol on the products, even better! Let us know if you find one, it is apparently quite elusive!

https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=5JDocMmxLOohttps://www.youtube.com/watch?v=5JDocMmxLOo

Do you know anything already? What is it called? What are they like? Where in the world are they? What grows there? Watch the video again and imagine you are there. Use your senses to help: see, hear, smell, feel and taste.

  1. Complete a senses journey based on the rainforest. The sheet can be found below. Please do not print it out, just copy it onto paper or complete it on the computer.
  2. Look at the words and definitions below and match them. Again no need to print these out, discuss with an adult or write them out.

Milo the Science Rover

We used LegoWeDo to create Milo the Science Rover. Milo is used to explore far away places. We then had to code Milo to move and decide what each coding block meant.

Croeso i Jac-y-Do

I am hoping everyone had a great first week back.

We created a music playlist for golden time. It s the first time ever that the music choices reflected what parents listen to. Myself and Mrs George were loving the choices. I think we were more excited than the children.

READING BOOKS 

Children are allowed to change their books once finished. It does not matter what day this is and we are encouraging them to become more independent. We expect children to read at least three times a week with an adult at home. The yellow reading record needs to be signed at least three times to show this. We will check this every Tuesday. Any questions please don’t hesitate to ask.
