Year 1 make dens in the rain!

 

Den making 

A wet week didn't stop the children from exploring and learning outside. If fact, it inspired them to get even more creative! They have spent the week making and improving their waterproof shelters.

Creating dens gives children the opportunity to think outside of the box and problem solve in order to create a structure. The children have been developing their communication and language skills as they worked as a team to create their den.

Our outside area is part of our everyday learning environment and we use it whatever the weather. Therefore, can we ask that on the wetter days, the children wear a waterproof coat if they have one? 

Many Thanks 

The Year One Team
