Sculpture –A piece of art that you can touch and see from different angles—it is 3D.

Explore – To try out and play with materials to see what they can do.

Join – To connect two or more materials together.

What is a sculpture?A sculpture is a piece of art you can touch and walk around. It is not flat like a drawing—it is 3D and made by building with different materials.

Why do we play with materials before making something?We play with materials to see what they can do. This helps us get ideas and try new things—even if we don’t know what we’re making at the start.

Rain – Common weather in spring that helps plants grow.

Blossom – Flowers that bloom on trees during spring.

Longer days – In spring, the daylight lasts longer as days get brighter.

What changes happen in nature during spring?In spring, the weather starts to get warmer and plants begin to grow again. Trees grow new leaves and flowers start to bloom. Many animals have babies in spring, like lambs and chicks. You might see more insects, birds building nests, and longer days with more sunlight.

What is spring weather like and how do the days change?Spring weather can be a mix of sunshine, rain, and wind. Sometimes it’s warm, but it can still be chilly or wet. The days begin to get longer, with more daylight than in winter. This means the sun rises earlier and sets later as spring goes on.
