This term we are working on our fitness to get us ready for Sports Day.  We are all taking part in our ‘daily’ mile challenge and trying hard to challenge ourselves in circuit training.

Last week we were looking at videos of ourselves doing star jumps so that next week we can improve the quality of our star jumps.

We have been working hard on our measuring skills.  We are learning to estimate the length and weight of an object and then use a variety of units to measure the items..

We went to the Science Centre to take part in a science show about sound as well as join in with the interactive science activities on the main floor.

The children really engaged with the activities and they all behaved fabulously!

We were very lucky to take part in a science show on Thursday called Ella’s Wobble. Generation Science visited us from the Edinburgh International Science Festival.

It was very hands on and interactive with the children all making two musical instruments.

Lots of our learning about the science of sound was consolidated in a really fun and exciting way!

Two video links are at the bottom of this post so you can listen to our sound effects!
