Remembrance in the Pine Room
In Science we did a colour experiment with Skittles – look at the pretty rainbow!
Having great fun during my MOVE Session.
We were successful learners in Numeracy, using pumpkins we measured them, then cut one open smelt and felt the inside of it and then scooped out the seeds to count them.
It smells AWFUL!!!
We were concentrating on the number 5 and enjoyed watching an episode of Counting with Rodd.
The Makaton sign of the week is the letter X.
Switch It Games – cause and effect.
In Literacy we have been looking at the Letter E, and made lovely glittery Elephant Pictures. We also practiced our Makaton signs by singing one of our favourite songs.
Remember our food experiments – the Celery and Spring Onion were the only ones that worked.
In our SQA Baking Unit we are exploring ingredients, this week we looked at different sugars, smelling them and touching them.
We carried out a few different Art activities for Remembrance Day, putting paint on a balloon and pressing it into the paper to create a lovely poppy.
Amazing!!!
Then we made different poppies by spraying water on paper and adding pieces of tissue paper, when it was dry it was painted with PVA Glue and cut into a bowl shape.
We also made our own poppy badges.
Literacy – letter recognition – finding the first letter of our names.
Our Vice Eco Captain made sure that we use up all our left overs, so we made some Autumn leaf pictures with the tissue paper from the poppies.
Looking good.

Successful Learners – SQA Numeracy
The Transition class were Successful Learners when they worked with pictograms. They made a pictogram to show different eye colours in the class and the number of people with each colour. They then spent some time understanding a made pictogram about screen time. Some pupil matched numbers from the key, some totaled each bar and others answered short questions to provide conclusions.

An arty week!
We have been busy in the Sunflowers this week! Lot’s of art fun.
When we were in the garden we investigated bubbles. We enjoyed chasing them and blowing them by ourselves! It was great fun.
We also learned about Remembrance Day. We found out about what it was and why we do it. We then made our own poppies that we took home and some stayed in class, so everyone in school could see our wonderful work.
We started some Christmas art and managed to finish one of our snowmen. We called him Scotty the Snowman!
Our other snowman has had his first bit of paint on him and we will hopefully finish him next week!
Have a great weekend everyone.

The Beech class have absolutely loved being back in the gym hall for PE! We have taken part in some interpretive dance with props and have been responsible citizens with all the different pieces of equipment.
