As part of our outside learning day 3J went outside to watch the clouds and look for shapes we could see in them. Unfortunately the whole sky was covered in a giant one so we couldn’t see any individual shapes. We watched some on YouTube instead.  

Today we have been experimenting with building tall structures as a part of our Earthquake topic. We each used marshmallows and cocktail sticks to create a structure for Mrs Johnson to shake to see if it would withstand an Earthquake!
