Leaf Lying
On Thursday Room 7 had a wonderful morning doing some more exciting environmental writing. We went outside again in the early morning and went walking through the rustling, crunchy leaves in our school playground. We collected some to observe and play with and lay down under a large tree that was loosing its leaves. This gave us the opportunity to watch the falling leaves (and when none were falling we were able to throw the ones we were holding up and watch to see how they fell.
This experience provided us with a real life experience to write about, and the children rose to the occasion, producing some exceptional examples.
