Bubble Snake Blower!

As part of our Jungle Book theme, this week I thought you could have fun with a home science experiment where you recreate Kaa from the film 🐍

All you need is a plastic bottle, a sock, water and fairy liquid, which I’m sure you all have in the house.

1. Cut the bottom off of your plastic bottle with some scissors ✂

2. Pull a sock over the bottom of the bottle and secure it with an elastic band or bobble 🧦

3. Mix water and fairy liquid to create a bubble mixture 💧

4. Dip your sock covered bottle into the bubble mixture.

5. Blow through the top of the bottle.

Have lots of fun making bubble snakes! How long a snake can you make? If you wish, make a few bubble snake blowers and have a race with your family.

Just a reminder that these activities are just ideas but if you wish to take part and send a photograph or a comment along then I’d love to see it.

PS. I will be back in touch with families this week for a quick phone call so I look forward to having a catch up with you all 🙂

The Great Outdoors – Jungle Book Theme!

The Bluebells class had begun their new theme before school stopped. We had watched clips from the Jungle Book and got to know some of the main characters.

Remind yourself of our favourite song from the film by clicking the link below…

Activity 1 🐛🐞🕷
Can you go on a bug hunt around the garden or your local area like Baloo and Mowgli did? What did you find?

Activity 2 🍌🥥🍉
This week, have a fruit tasting session. This could be one piece of fruit or a full on fruit kebab like Baloo enjoyed. Was the fruit tasty or yucky?

Activity 3 🐻
Finally can you pretend to be Baloo the bear and have a back scratch. Try and get all of your family to join in too.

Have fun and if you wish, send us some photographs or post a comment on how you are getting on!

Happy Earth Day!

Today is Earth Day! 🌍

I thought to celebrate you could maybe join in with some of these activities with your family.

1. Nature Photography! 📸
Grab your tablet or borrow a parent’s phone and head outdoors for some picture taking. This could be done in your garden or on your daily walk.

2. Cloud Watching! ⛅
Lay on blankets on the grass and look up at the sky. Can you see the clouds moving? Can you see any shapes? Do any of them look like faces or cloud animals?

  • 3. Earth Day Scavenger Hunt! 🌸
    In your garden or on your daily walk, can you find some of the items stated below:
  • Rock
  • Stick
  • Leaf
  • Grass
  • Litter
  • Flower
  • Spider web
  • Dirt
  • Insect
  • Feather
  • Bark

How many did you find?

Just a little reminder that these activities are optional, but if you have joined in, feel free to post a comment and tell me how you got on.

A Big Hello to the Bluebells!

Hi Bluebells Class! Its Miss Gemmell here and I’m sending you a big wave. Missing your faces lots and hope you are all staying safe and happy at home.

I have been in touch with all the ladies from the class and they are missing you too.

I have been keeping busy in the garden doing lots of weeding and watering the plants. Lucas the cat has been enjoying the sun too!

Mrs Vernon has been looking after her family and enjoying the sunshine when she can.

Mrs McInally has been going her daily walks and enjoying fun in the paddling pool and even camping in the garden with her two children.

Miss Jones has been enjoying some scenic walks and painting her fence.

Each week, I will post an activity on Monday mornings that you can take part in if you wish. These are not compulsory but ideas for you to complete with your siblings and parents if you want to join in.

Hope to see you all very soon! Take care!
