At first, our science experiment didn’t go too well. We followed the instructions right, we added the right amount of yeast, water and sugar. We changed the temperature between the three beakers, one boiling, one warm and one cold. We didn’t know why we didn’t succeed until the Best Before date on the yeast we were using was spotted. 2012! After lunch, we retried the experiment. The result was outstanding!
This morning we made our own Teddy Bear’s Picnic! We all made our own sandwich and marshmallow bears to eat at snack. We have all loved our topic about bears and the woods this term. 
We have been busy baking in Reception today. We have made funny face biscuits. We used icing, smarties for eyes, and a big smiley face! We had lots of fun making them look like us!
We have been looking at the changes in the leaves during Autumn. We then used a mirror to look at our ourselves and make our own faces and match our hair colour to the leaves.
Look at me retelling the story ‘We’re Going on a Bear Hunt’ using our story map!
We have been working really hard on our counting skills over the last two weeks and today we used conkers to match the correct number.
We have been learning about how our bodies move! Here we are making a model of a muscle! Muscles pull the bones
Today we went to Eaton Bank High School to take part in a Ready, Steady, Cook competition. Bethany represented Marlfields as part of the red team. Each team was given a set of ingredients and a recipe to follow. They had to cook their food in only 15 minutes. Bethany prepared and cooked chicken curry and fragrant rice which tasted delicious. Brilliantly, red team won by three votes. Well done Bethany!
Today in maths we went outside to find numbered bears in the right order. Each of the bears had a question on it for us to answer! We had to record how many of each thing we could see by drawing lines next to the right picture.
Class 4 have been exploring the work of Eric Joyner, a robot artist, in relation to their topic of The Iron Man. Have a look at their Eric Joyner inspired artwork!
We went on our very own bear hunt! We went through long wavy grass, a deep cold river, thick oozy mud, a big dark forest, a swirling whirling snowstorm and a narrow gloomy cave, where we found A BEAR! 
We are looking at the sense of smell today and we had to smell 5 different smells and guess what they were.
