Collection Counting

We have started counting collections in Maths.

Counting Collections is an opportunity for children to count a collection of objects. They might count the items one-by-one or skip-count by groups. After children have organised and counted the collection they record how they counted.

Self portraits

We drew self portraits at the beginning of the year and now again at the end of the year. We did this twice to see how much we have grown, changed and improved with our art skills. Our favourite part was comparing both pieces of work. What do you notice is different about us?

Halloween Art

For Halloween we did some artwork of spooky legs. We made a range of characters. It was really fun cutting out different shapes for the legs and clothes. Can you guess who any of them might be?

Pygmy seahorses

We have been learning how to take notes and then using our notes to write an information report.
We enjoyed watching the Youtube video about the Pygmy Seahorses.
Have you ever heard about the Pygmy Seahorse before?





Pygmy Seahorses

Pygmy Seahorses are one of the smallest seahorses in the world. They are normally 2 centimeters.

Camouflage is critical to their survival because they can hide from predators.

Here is a question.
Do they find a coral that matches them or do they change colour to match the coral?

The babies pop out of the dad's tummy. When the Pygmy seahorses are born they are a chocolate dull brown colour.

If the baby Pygmy seahorses are by an orange sea fan they will turn orange and if the baby Pygmy seahorses are by a purple sea fan they will turn purple. The babies grow bumps that are called tubercles to match the coral.

The Pygmy seahorses don’t travel to different corals because the predators might see them and eat  them.
