2L have been learning about Kenya and this week they learnt about the Maasai Mara Tribe who live in The Maasai Mara National Reserve in Kenya.

The children made Maasai necklaces and had a go at The Jumping Dance. They had to keep their arms together and take off and land without letting their heels touch the ground. They had a competition to see who could jump the highest.

Well done 2L, for sharing with the rest of the school, your learning about different habitats from around the world. You all did a fabulous job.

Well done again, for then transforming your animal hats into hats that were fit for a king!

The children did close observational drawings of the snails that they found.

The children used charcoal and chalk. They looked really closely at the patterns on the snails’ shell.

The children made a paper loom and learnt the terms warps and wefts. They decided whether to use hot or cold colour and experimented with different patterns of weaving.

The children used garden fencing and wove using different coloured fleeces and yarn.
