We enjoyed our second week of Yoga today!! We did a lot of practise stretches and breathing exercises to ensure calmness and mindfulness. However we then played some games and we even acted as candles on a birthday cake because it was Azarea’s birthday!!!
Happy Birthday Azarea! Hope you have a FANTASTIC day full of fun and laughter!
Today we had a visit from some cool rugby guys!
They taught us how to throw tha ball, tackle at waist height and to remember the rule ‘space not face’!!!
There is training at the Aberdeen Wanderers pitches at Hazlehead Park every Saturday morning for us if we are interested!!!
They will be back again next term to work with the Primary 6&7s!!
Today we began our first posters of the features found in a non-fiction text. These features include a glossary, index, headings, table of contents.
We have chosen our own book so most of us have chosen a book on a topic that we are interested in or else do not know a lot about!!
We will continue these throughout the week.
Today we had our first yoga class of this session. It was really good to get back into our calming stretches especially after working hard in class. Mr MacCallum helped us to warm up and did a few new warm up activities beforehand too.
