One of my favourite topics to teach – The Grand Canal.

During the month of May we walked along the canal, we watched a documentary on TV about the Royal Canal, we studied bridges, we learned about pollution, we built bridges and we played and learned all about the creatures that live along the canal.  We also watched a video on how to open locks.  We learned so much but ultimately had fun.

Have a look at some of our work.

Construction Area – we built bridges and barges.

Building Bridges

Messy Play

Outdoor Play – this was amazing…..real life bridges, supporting, balancing, team work and measuring!
