The children in Beesley Class have continued to learn about certain parts of their bodies. This week the children have been learning about the important jobs of our eyes and nose.

The children have been exploring which is the most popular eye colour in our class. We made a pictogram by looking at our eyes in a mirror and each had a go at colouring an eye in. We then added our eyes to our class pictogram and counted the amount of eyes for each colour of eye. We found out that blue was the most popular eye colour in our class.
