We have been sharing some of our learning and skills with the nursery boys and girls who are coming to Primary 1 after the summer. We have been telling them about some of the things we love about school! This week we had a joint play session and made the most of the lovely weather by getting outside into the garden. Next we are going to be showing them some of our favourite numeracy games with the numicon.

Lotto!!!!! French minibeast bingo
We are doing so well with our french minibeast learning. This week we were learning the French words for common minibeast habitats. We loved playing bingo to apply our new learning.
Growing so fast….
Look at our wonderful sunflower plants. We found out in our experiment that seeds need to have both water and light to grow. We made sure our seed had both of these things and look how quickly they grew!!! We took our plants home to look after them.
We have found lots of interesting bugs this week. This large spider was in our classroom so we carefully put it in our magnifier jar to take a closer look. The spider had an interesting pattern on its back! We also found a minibeast that none of us could identify. Miss Thompson took it with her to the staffroom to see if any of the other teachers knew what it was, but they didn’t either. After some research we identified it as an adult Hawthorne Shield bug which is quite rare for our country. Unfortunately it had lost a leg because we could only count 5! We were very pleased with our find and after all having a closer look, we released it outside in a safe place.
