Away from the Hut

 So yesterday I was speaking about loving my job and today I thought I would show you a day in my life. These pictures are from a school trip we went on last Wednesday and we were treated to the last of the Autumn sun. I am working as a practitioner exploring creative learning in a special needs school. We are looking at learning outside the classroom and using our senses. the pictures above are from our colour hunt, we spied these red leaves all the ways across the field.

 We found lots of interesting things growing...

 The sun shone all day and even though it was cold it was quite magical.

 I am quite pleased with my mushroom pictures.

The children were all supplied with explorers packs to look and collect. These are to be used later in the classroom.

Of course I've selected the photos without kids. But there were lots of great moments. Looking through binoculars at tiny mushrooms, running free and climbing inside the trunk of an ancient oak tree.

 It was a great day of learning, communicating and working together.

A day all about art, science, english, geography and nature.

I only regret that this type of work seems to be coming to an end. A shame, especially working with children who need different styles of learning.
