Outdoor Learning<\/p>\n

With 2 storms in 1 week outdoor learning has been tricky but we have still managed to access the outdoor learning environment when it was safe to do so.\u00a0 The children took part in a risk assessment to assess the damage from the storm and helped clear up and branches the wind had blown into our playground.\u00a0<\/span><\/p>\n

Outdoor Challenge:\u00a0<\/span><\/p>\n

The children have been enjoying some new resources for our water area and they were set a challenge to hit all 4 targets with water using the syringe.\u00a0 Some children were able to work out how to hit the furthest away target but projecting the water with more force.\u00a0 We also measured the distance the water travelled by counting how many steps it took to reach a target.\u00a0\u00a0<\/span><\/p>\n

Indoor Learning<\/p>\n

At the beginning of the week we had a wonderful visit from Kay, a professional Highland Dancer who has performed in the Edinburgh tattoo.\u00a0 Kay has been all over the world dancing and was very excited to visit us. The children asked Kay questions about her dancing and her beautiful costume then we were able to learn some traditional highland dance moves.\u00a0 We were all delighted to watch Kay dancing for us and had lots of fun learning the dance moves.<\/span><\/p>\n

We have been busy practising our poem \u2018In My Wee Rid Motor\u2019 and on Thursday we got the chance to perform to the primary 7 children who really enjoyed it.\u00a0 Then it was our turn to be the audience as the Primary 7 children performed \u201cTo A Louse\u201d by Robert Burns for us.<\/span><\/p>\n
