Today in Forest School P4 completed a literacy task, in which they had to use materials to represent fiction, make a fiction story and use describing words for their fictional characters. Children were split into groups and one 'leader' from each group was given a container. The group had to collect a small amount of material which was placed in the container and missed together to make a 'potion.' The children then all gathered together to discuss their potions (what they were called, what they did).
Next, the groups had to decide on a fictional character that lived in the forest. Once they had decided on their character, they had to build a den for the character.
The forest school lesson was concluded with the usual evaluation session.
