Summer Time activities!

We all enjoyed some summer activities last week and the sun was even shining!

We had fun playing with water and sand:

We chopped up strawberries and made our own fruit ice lollies:

We were super confident handling small animals and birds at our Bunny Love session:

We loved getting our Prize Giving certificates from Mrs Smallwood. We’ve worked so hard throughout the year:

On Thursday if was our spa morning. How relaxing!

We made our own paper plate beach scene. We used crushed rice krispies to make the sand:

We had a super time outside for Fun Friday. More water play and sand play to enjoy:

A wee trip to the park where we enjoyed a picnic and some play. We fed the swans and ducks too. We noticed how much the cygnets had grown since the last time we visited:

POLO week

We’ve had a great week taking part in POLO activities.

Here are a few of our photos:

We told the story of We’re Going on a Bear Hunt in the school garden.

We collected sticks and natural materials to make natural paint brushes.

We had great fun practising our reading and looking skills at our outdoor kitchen.

Well done, Asteroids!

Celebrating MOVE!

We have had a fabulous time today taking part in many MOVE activities. The upper primary enjoyed a time dancing outside and playing musical statues as well as enjoying some bubble time, hopscotch, and ball games. We were confident individuals and took part in all the activities.

In the class, we did some parachute games and played keepie uppie, with balloons, and the traffic light game. We also made our own MOVE poster.

In the afternoon, we were back outside to enjoy some space stations. We launched some rockets, slalomed through space, space hopped, made our own fruit rocket kebab and made the world inside a bag.

It was a lot of fun and the Asteroids had a blast!

IDL evidence – caring for one another

The Asteroids have learned during their topic, that Pirates were quite nasty and unkind towards other people.

We agreed that it was much better to be kind to others. We looked at the Christian values of being kind to each other and the Golden Rule of treating others as we would want to be treated.

We made a bee out of toilet roll tubes to help us remember to ‘Be Kind’ and to treat others like we would like to be treated. We did really well sticking on the black stripes, eyes, antennae, wings and words.

We all looked at different actions and behaviour cards and could sort them into ‘friendly’ and ‘unfriendly’ piles. We demonstrated we knew how to treat others kindly and care for each other.

Well done, Asteroids!

Celebrating the Jubilee!

The Asteroids had a fabulous time celebrating the Queen’s Jubilee!

We made cupcakes and decorated them and made extra for our families at home. Yum, yum!

While we were waiting for our cakes to bake, we had great fun playing with red and blue balloons.

This afternoon we enjoyed cutting and sticking to make the Queen’s face from images associated with the Queen and the royal family. We also made a Union Jack flag using our fingers and paint.

Happy Jubilee weekend, everyone!

Global Goals 3 Good Health and Wellbeing – disease and how to prevent it.

To show how easily germs can be passed on from one person to another, one class member put green paint on his hands, to represent germs, and shook hands or high-fived other class members. We noticed that everyone ended up having green paint on their hands. This meant we all had germs on our hands! We did the experiment again and some people were given damp wipes to wipe away the green paint. This was to show the effect washing our hands can have on transferring germs.

We watched a short film about the importance of hand washing in different situations. The film told us that even though our hands look clean, we still can have tiny germs lurking there. Argh!

We made a poster to show when we should wash our hands and how washing hands can help stop the spread of disease and viruses.

FAOL Science – Floating and Sinking

The Asteroids have been confident individuals during our science lesson on floating and sinking.

Firstly we made predictions about whether different objects would float or sink. After we predicted, we tested it out and recorded the results. Did it float or did it sink?

Then we talked about pirate ships and what would happen if the pirates found too much treasure and their ships sunk? We used pennies to try this out.

To test how many pennies it would take to make a pirate ship sink,  we firstly make confident choices about which  recyclable plastic container we wanted to use as our pirate ships.

Then we tried to predict how many coins it would take to sink our own ships. Test time: we had great fun filling our ships with coins and counting how many our ships took till they sunk. We noticed that bigger ships took more coins than smaller ships to sink!

Well done, Asteroids!

Digital Learning Week

We have enjoyed exploring and experimenting with different technologies this week.

We were very responsible when finding out ways to be safe when using the internet on technologies. We listened to a story about Buddy the Dog and how he helped his friend, Ben, make good choices when using the Internet. We made our own poster on how to be safe using the internet.

We explored using QR codes too. It was fun scanning the code and waiting to see what would happen. The codes took us to songs and stories, which we enjoyed.

During our topic time, we tried some Pirate coding. We used coding to find different items on a treasure map.

We also made our own mobile phone and chose apps to add. Some of us wrote text messages to people at home.

It was fun exploring different types of technology and the boys were brave trying out new things.

Well done, Asteroids!
