Inspired by our story this week, the nursery class embarked on a fascinating leaf hunt outdoors. The children immediately observed that the ground was covered in a thick layer of leaves, which sparked a natural geographical discussion: "Why are the leaves on the ground?" and "Where did they come from?"This curiosity led to a key observation about seasonal change. The children looked up and noticed that the trees, which had been full of leaves, were now largely bare. This visible change from leaves on the tree to leaves on the ground provided a concrete lesson in the cycle of nature and the concept of where materials originate. We then searched enthusiastically for leaves of different colours, shapes, and sizes, carefully collecting them to use as natural resources for our other work taking place in class. This hands-on exploration linked observation of the local environment directly to classroom learning.
