Polar Bear class have been learning about inventors and

inventions. We have learnt about the Penny Farthing, the first

car and the very first hot air balloon.

The children invented their

own vehicles that had a purpose.

Some children invented a car for

a Super Hero.

Some invented cars for animals

 When we were researching the invention
of the first hot air balloon using the internet,
the children found out some really
interesting facts.

Did you know that the first hot air

balloon was invented in 1783 by two
brothers from France called Joseph
Michel and Jacques Etienne
Montgolfiere. The first passengers
were a duck, a sheep and a rooster!

The children in Polar Bear class love learning using

‘Thinking Hats’. We have different coloured hats that help
us think in different ways. The hats help us solve problems
and understand our work.
