This week we learned more about plants and botany. We covered leaf shapes, photosynthesis, the philosopher Theophrastus, how to use a compass, had a little garden study, looked at some beautiful paintings, and enjoyed a few art sessions. ⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀
It’s also #enwcsummerpondweek so we joined in with all things pond life and visited our local preserve to explore. Keeping busy over here as usual ⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀
