Dinosaurs and French Pets
This afternoon, P2/3 were learning about the Triassic, Jurassic, and Cretaceous Periods and the different parts of a dinosaur.
P2/3 also learned the names for their pets in French. They wrote a sentence detailing the pet they had/would like to have, in French, and drew a picture of it.
P2/3 also enjoyed using the laptops to type out their spelling words this week.
Fab work P2/3!
Dinosaurs: Fossils
Today in P2/3 we were learning about dinosaur fossils. We made some of our own fossils using salt dough and searched in the sand like we were a paleontologist looking for tricky words to look up the meaning in a dictionary. The children also enjoyed putting in order the events that take place to create a fossil.
Fab work P2/3!
Science: Gummy Bears
Last week P1 and P2/3 predicted what they thought was going to happen when we put gummy bears in water. They were amazed when the gummy bears grew in size!
Amazing work P2/3

P2/3 had two visitors from Whitelee Windfarm who came to talk to us about wind energy. They showed us what they have to wear to climb to the top of the wind turbines to fix them. The children loved trying on the harness and looking at pictures from the top of the turbines.
