How does your Garden grow?

This week in Reception, we have been singing the Nursery Rhyme "Mary Mary Quite Contrary". 
Not only have we be singing the 'normal' version, we've also invented our own! 
Here's Mason's reinvented rhyme:

Mary Mary quite contraryHow does your garden grow?With silver bells and dinosaur bonesand pretty bones all in a row, row, rowPretty bones all in a row.

We have also been working on scientific drawings of flowers. We embodied all the agents to give constructive feedback to our partners to enable them to improve on their draft each time. 

Here are a few examples of the observational drawings we produced, after taking on feedback and constructive criticism from our friends.

We also went to the immersion room and watched a time lapse video of buds opening up into flowers. The children sketched their favourite flowers from the video, as they watched them bloom.
