What colour were dinosaurs?

We don't know! Experts say that alot of dinosaurs must have been neutral colours like some of the big mammals we have today.  The children in Year 1 discussed that dinosaurs were probably greens, browns, and earthy colours so that they camouflaged into their natural habitat. 

We had a go at mixing some of our own dinosaur colours this afternoon.

I'm home at my Mum's for the weekend and thought I would be a good girl and do my homework!  Here are some photos of me as a baby and a little girl!

Wednesday 18th April

Another busy day today!

We started the day exercising in PE.  This morning we also thought about ways in which we are special.

Did you know how special Oscar is?

This afternoon we found out lots of information about dinosaurs and made our own dinosaur posters for our classroom. 

Did you know that dinosaurs lived millions of years ago?  Did you know that Triceratops had 3 horns? What else do you know about dinosaurs?  What else would you like to find out?

Keep checking the blog to see what else we have learnt!

Oliver's Garden

Today we read a fantastic book about a boy named Oliver who only liked chips!   

 We looked at the pretend vegetables and talked about whether we had eaten them before!  Khalid told us about growing potatoes in Sudan. 

 Aurora designed her own vegetable garden and used adjectives to write a description!

This afternoon we have done lots of planting including aloe vera plants.  "The compost felt squidgy!"  Stanley.

A Busy First Day Of Term!

Wow! We have started our new topic about plants and dinosaurs. We made dinosaur bones from salt dough, we labelled fossils AND we dug our garden ready to plant with interesting things! We will sleep well tonight...
