As part of our science work, Reception and Year 1 children have been learning the parts of the body. The children drew around each other onto paper and cut out the body outlines. They then went onto label the parts of the body onto the outlines. They were very intrigued to discover what the brain and the heart looks like – “ it looks like spaghetti!” and “it looks like a piece of beef.”

We have also investigated whether the oldest person is always the tallest and some of the children were surprised to find out that the oldest person is not always the tallest.
