The rain didn't dampen the Snowy Owl's enjoyment and enthusiasm for Forest School this week. We investigated parts of plants and identified perfect and imperfect flowers. The children worked as a team to  build shelters. We finished the session with marshmallows around the fire.

The Snowy Owls have painted, made and written their own cards to send to the residents of Springfields. As we have been unable to visit Springfields for some time, the children thought it would be nice to let the residents know that we are still thinking of them and that we hope to visit them again soon.

We learnt that to produce a sound with an instrument, you can strike, pluck or blow it. We discovered that these group of instruments are called percussion, string or wind. We made our own string instrument and plucked it to make a sound. We experimented with pitch and used our knowledge to explain what was happening.
