Bump Up Afternoon
Check out our towers!
Mrs Connell challenged us to make towers from spaghetti and marshmallows. It was tough! It was difficult to make it tall without it falling over. Some of the towers collapsed before we could take a picture.
We got to enjoy munching the leftover marshmallows after we tidied up though.
Coronation Picnic 🇬🇧
Today we enjoyed a picnic style lunch. We took our blankets and lunch out to our lovely green space and enjoyed some tasty coronation cupcakes.
Bonjour! 🇫🇷
This week we started learning one of our chosen languages, French!
With Mrs Connell we learned how to say the names of colours and played some games of Bingo.
With Miss Murray, we started to have basic greetings conversations in French.
Sewing 🧵
This week we enjoyed some sewing activities. Look at our hand puppets and Easter decorations…
Lego Club 👷♂️
On Monday, we enjoyed a build challenge at our new Lego Club! We had to build the tallest tower using the fewest blocks possible. Here’s our handiwork!
Angles
This week we have been investigating angles. We’ve learned about the types of angles and how to measure them… those protractors are a bit fiddly, even the giant one on the board.
Investigating seeds and flowers 🌸
Primary 4-7 investigated different types of seeds and looked for their similarities and differences. We also labelled the parts of a flower using a tulip to identify each part.
Repeated Addition
Today we used the Numicon to help us understand repeated addition. Look at all our examples…
Quentin Blake Exhibition
Today Primary 5/6/7 enjoyed a visit to the Dick Institute in Kilmarnock to see the Quentin Blake exhibition. We enjoyed looking at his artwork and illustrations before getting a chance to create our own artwork. Fiona showed us how to use mixed media such as ink, watercolour, crayons and charcoal.
What do you think of our artwork?
