An Autumn Adventure by Class One


Class One had an autumn adventure when they went for a walk in the woods last week.
We talked about how we could share our adventure with lots of people and decided to do a blog.

This is Class One’s first ever blog. All the children contributed by choosing the photographs and thinking carefully about what they wanted to say.
We have been learning about storytelling so Scarlett thought it would be a good idea to tell a story about our adventure. Some of the children chose to report their contribution on the iPad and some used the digital voice recorder. All of them had a go at writing part, or all of what they wanted to say.

This is the story we wrote, along with the pictures we chose.
 
Once upon a time Class One went for a walk in the woods.
 


 
The children ran around finding leaves and put them in bags to take back to school. They also took photographs of each other and the things they saw around them.
 

 
 
 
Lots of them were very excited to help pull Freddie’s cart. The cart was also very useful for carrying leaves.
 
 
On the way back to school they found a mysterious tunnel with a bridge over the top. They thought about who might live in the tunnel under the bridge.
 
 
At the end of the walk they found a log and tree branches. They all found a space and had their photograph taken. It was fun!
 
 
When they got back to school they looked at all the beautiful leaves they had found. They thought about the colours and saved part of the leaves so they could mix their own colours and make leaf prints.
 
 
They also shared the story of the Three Billy Goats Gruff (because they thought maybe a Troll had lived under the bridge they crossed on the walk) and they used puppets to retell the story.

Class One had a fantastic time investigating all the autumn things they found on their walk and the things they have brought from home for the investigation table.

 
The end.
We hope you enjoyed our story.
