On Wednesday, as part of Science Week we were treated to a visit by Micheal Burke. He taught us about decidious and evergreen trees. We also learnt some weather lore signs and dates to watch out for.
14th December- shortest afternoon
21st December- shortest day
6th January- Cock's step (each day gets longer y the amount of time it takes a cock to take a step)
1st February- First day of spring
Finding out how old we are on the tree trunk |
Working out the spirals on a pine cone |
Taking note of some weather lore facts |
Examining a piece of bog oak |
Seeing the difference in the weight of timber from the rainforest and from here |
