Dosbarth St Gladys - Miss Jones
Hello Everyone!
We are the Reception and Year 1.
This year is going to be so exciting with all the new things that we will be learning together.
Keep looking at our page to find out the adventures we have been on in our class.
Our Bread Dough Investigation
We wanted to find out what happened to dough to when it was cooked for different times. We made predictions, chose the ingredients, collected the equipment, planned the method, undertook the investigation and collected the results! Phew! We were very busy scientists!
The Investigation
We are scientists!
This half term we have been looking at how materials can change and we have focused on ingredients found in bread. We have learnt so much! Have a look at the photos below and follow our investigation.
What happens when we mix water, flour, salt and sugar?




Buying Bread







Tasting our bread and which one was our favourite?
Stewardship
We have been focused on Stewardship as part of Catholic Social Teaching.
We have been working in the garden trying to make a working garden full of herbs, vegetables and fruits.
Science - Exploring plants and sea life
We've been using outside spaces for our science work this half term. We have been to the beach to carry on our topic work and exploring the rock pools. We found crabs, seaweed, shells and lots of driftwood. We tested the difference between dry sand and wet sand when building sandcastles. This was such a busy day!
We are also starting to develop our garden area. We've been planting sunflowers, bedding plants and herbs. Our next step is to start growing vegetables!

Feeding of the 5000
We've been listening to the story of The Feeding of the 5000. We made our own baskets of fish and loaves, we also chose words from Jesus to add to the picture.
