Bird Day, by Mrs Harrison
Date: 16th Feb 2017 @ 4:35pm
On Wednesday, Year 1 had a bird day. We looked closely at birds, sketching them using pencils and black biro pens. We then added information to our sketches by researching birds using videos, books and Ipads.
In the afternoon, we identified different birds around the forest and field. What beautiful sounds they make!
Year 1 then used their knowledge about the features of birds and their artistic skills to create clay birds.
We have had lots of fun learning all about birds.
I wonder what facts Year 1 can share with you at home?

We then created bright and colourful hearts to share our happiness with family at home.
