This afternoon's history seems to have sparked some extra curiosity, so we ended up having a deep dive into The Hanging Gardens of Babylon, one of the Seven Wonders of the Ancient World 🌎 I knew nothing about this before, so we've been learning together!
My favourite quotes of the afternoon:
✨"This is the most interesting history we've ever done, it's like searching for clues and trying to work out what you believe!"
✨"I think I might like to be an archaeologist when I grow up... Or maybe a historian... Or maybe both!"
We love using The Story of the World by for history - it reads like a captivating story, pitched at a perfect level and makes you want to keep reading!

A bit of practical problem solving at breakfast time for our Maths today 🥰 This ended in a sharing game which included both the 7 year old and 2 year old (who wants to be involved in everything!)

This book has been a PERFECT resource for learning about food chains and how plants & animals depend on each other. I love it when you find a brilliant story that does the teaching for you.. I was just along for the ride!
Thankyou for passing this on to us ✨
(Home Ed friends who share resources are also the best!)

We've spent a couple of weeks playing with multiplication and division... so when it came to pictorial representations and abstract number work this morning she was totally ready 🥰
We're currently revisiting some things from the Spring term using White Rose Maths. We usually use but I supplement with WRM for a few different reasons. It works brilliantly for us at the moment! ✨
