Primary 2/3 had lots of fun finding microhabitats for the minibeasts from the classroom 🐛🐞🐜🪳🕷️

Year 2 went hunting for minibeasts as part of their Science topic about Microhabitats. #YoungScientists Kapow Primary

KS1 have been looking for microhabitats in Science this afternoon.

Penguins Science and DT- designing and creating Minibeast hotels: The Penguins have designed and then created our own Minibeast hotels! We have been learning about minibeast microhabitats and we have created a perfect shelter that will hopefully attract… dlvr.it/T6MZwl

'Who lives in a house like this?' In science year two have been learning about mini-beasts and microhabitats- sketching, painting and modelling with clay as well as writing evidence lead to a fantastic and very busy lesson!

Zentangle Minibeasts in the Robins: We have created our own zentangle minibeasts inspired by the work of Rosalind Monks. We are really proud of our artwork and think that they all look fit to explore their microhabitats. We hope that you like them too!  dlvr.it/T6MMtt

Building on their knowledge of habitats, #Year2 :

🪳Learn about microhabitats
🪳Learn that scientists use a range of skills
🪳Carry out an experiment to find out the conditions woodlice prefer

For all of Earth Week, we've been showcasing microhabitats you can build to support bugs:
🍂Plant materials, like leaves & stems
🥤Water sources
🪨Rock piles or walls
🏜Bare ground
But there's 1 more that ties them all together: native wildflowers! 🌻🐝⤵️

'🌿Year 2 Cheam Park Farm had a great adventure at Forest School today they dived into the world of habitats and microhabitats! From pond dipping to mini beast hunting, they're exploring nature's wonders firsthand. 🐞🦋 #ForestSchool #OutdoorLearning #NatureExploration '

In science this afternoon class 5 have been exploring microhabitats. #lscpsscience

What a fabulous Outdoor Learning Day we’ve had! From developing our teamwork and communication skills to Science at it’s best; exploring microhabitats, mini-beasts and plants! We are so lucky to have these beautiful surroundings right on our doorstep!🌺🌹🌷🌳🌸 Holly Mount RC Primary

Today we loved our walk to Richmond Park identifying different habitats and microhabitats. We even had time to play on the park! 😀 @StradbrokePrimary

In Reception the children have been learning that minibeasts like to live in different microhabitats and know these places have commonalities.

The children went on a minibeast hunt, tallying the common minibeasts they found and their microhabitats.

A round up of learning in 2G 😀
A drama workshop, Eid celebrations, Science learning about microhabitats and making fractions posters to show our Maths understanding 🤩 #REatJG #EnglishatJG #ScienceatJG #MathsatJG

Cherry Tree loved exploring our local microhabitats and what mini-beasts we can find inside of them!🐛🐞🦋🐜🪱🪰🪳🕷️🪲

Linking our learning about Habitats and Microhabitats in Forest School 🍃🪵. We created Microhabitats for ourselves and they had to have Shelter, Space, Water and Food! #Pencsealions #Pencflamingos #PencOUTDOORS #PencECC #PencSCI

🌿🔍 Year 2 Angelfish class are having a fascinating time at Beckenham Place Park today! Exploring the tiny worlds of microhabitats and discovering the living things that call them home 🐜🐞🍃. Hands-on science in action! 🧪👩‍🔬

Yesterday, Year 2 Blue really enjoyed making microhabitats and some bugs 🐜 even set up home before the day was over Mrs Foster
