Well done to Alicija and Arya for earning our Pride of Plover certificates this week. Both girls have been working really hard in phonics and in their writing. They have been superstars.

Playing with water

16th May 2025Mrs Price

We had so much fun playing with water today. The children collected, poured and tipped and at the end, watered the plants and trees. We hope that there will be apples on the tree.

Things we have been doing outside

15th May 2025Mrs Price

The children have been looking for ladybirds and caterpillars. There were lots on the wall and the children were talking about the different sizes. They have noticed different herbs and have been talking about the ones they like and don’t like. Mint was definitely the favourite! Balancing on stilts has been popular and the children have been racing on them.

Innovating the Gingerbread Man

15th May 2025Joshua Meade

Yesterday and today the children have come up with different ‘happily ever after’ endings to innovate our Gingerbread man story. Well done to the children who have worked hard to write their ending independently using finger spaces, Fred fingers and correct letters.

Beautiful writing from Laura “The dolphin makes a magical bridge for the Gingerbread Man to cross the river!” #LovePlover

Food gives us energy

14th May 2025Mrs Price

In crew we learnt that different food has different amounts of energy. We use the energy from our food up when we are active.  Food is our fuel. So, if we eat lots and lots of food, we need to use the energy up.

We went outside and used up our energy by doing relay races.

How can we help the Gingerbread Man?

13th May 2025Joshua Meade

After reading the story, the children made predictions of what might happen if the Gingerbread man fell in the river: float, break, snap, melt, turn to liquid, crumble, go soft, sink, make the water brown.

So we did a science experiment to see. We put the Gingerbread man into water and we were correct… he dissolved and went into a soggy mush. After, we thought of different ideas to help the Gingerbread Man so he didn’t fall in the water. #LovePlover
