We had a great time singing in our SHANARRI performance of ‘You’ve got a friend in me’.

       We conducted a second experiment today to see how far sneezes spread germs. We measured how far the sneeze went with nothing in front of it, a hand in front and a tissue. We found that the tissue caught most of the sneeze and that it is the best thing to use.

We conducted an experiment to find out what happens to bread when we touch it with clean hands, dirty hands or when no one touches it. We also predicted what would happen after a week.

We covered our hands with special “germs” and used a light box to see them. We washed our hands and used the light box again to see who was the best hand washer. Sneezy Sam joined P3 and had a great time “sneezing” on the class.

Primary 3 had a yoga lesson to experience different breathing techniques. We have been learning about how the lungs work.

We had an amazing time performing our Easter show this morning. Thank you for coming along to watch. The children did so well, everyone remembered their lines and sang beautifully. If you couldn’t make it today, we have filmed it and will try to make the video accessible for you soon.

 Primary 3 have been working really hard this week on their end of topic challenge. We used our teamwork skills to create a model of an importance place in Aberdeen out of recycling. We then covered them in newspaper and glue. Once that dried, we carefully painted on the details that were unique to our building. We typed up information about our models using Microsoft Word. What was originally a small recycling project, has turned into an excellent display that we are really proud of.

We had an excellent time visiting Duthie Park yesterday. The Rangers called Claire and Alex showed us all of the interesting statues and fountains and gave us lots of facts about them. We also explored the Winter Gardens, hunting for plants that grow things used in everyday items such as coffee, tea and soap.  Our favourite part was the play park where there was lots of great slides and swings.

We have been working really hard today on pieces of writing about our experiences at Duthie Park and have drawn lovely pictures too.
