On Thursday, Y4 took part in their first Beach School lesson. Using sticks, they marked the waterline. By the end of the lesson, they saw how far the tide had came in because the first stick was well underwater and the second stick was only just visible! The children worked brilliantly as a team to build shelters (although one shelter didn’t quite make it to the end of the lesson but Mrs Wilson doesn’t want to talk about that!). Using information cards, the children took part in a beach scavenger hunt and found lots of interesting rocks, sea creatures and seaweed. Sandra, the beach school teacher, was so helpful identifying the fantastic finds! Finally, because the water was so calm the children were able to skim stones which was a real hit with everyone! The children can’t wait to go back this week!
