EYFS Meteorologists at Burradon
Today the children in Reception and Nursery became meteorologists. They were looking at the wind in particular and made windsocks and kites. A great activity for your meteorologist to try at home is the NUSTEM at home reflective mobile. All you need are any shiny materials you can find in your home and some glue.
