The Bluebells class worked together to create an Odd and Even Street. We sorted houses into two categories and then had to put the odd numbers on one side of the street and even numbers on the other side.

The Bluebells class looked closely at a range of objects you would find in the house. We had to sort these objects into things you would find in a living room, bathroom, kitchen and bedroom. We all managed to sort these objects into the appropriate categories. Well done!

The Bluebells class enjoyed making tattie scones and link sausages at cookery. We all took turns using the frying pan and were very safe and careful. We were also ALL brave enough to taste either the sausages or tattie scones.

The Bluebells class enjoyed sourcing materials outdoors. We found sticks, leaves and pine cones and used them to create a house shape. We really enjoyed working together and were happy with our final result.

The Bluebells class went a walk to Scotmid to buy some snacks today. We used Google Maps on Miss Gemmell’s phone and followed the route to get us to the shop.

The Bluebells class have been doing lots of activities related to our theme story ‘Thistle Street’. One of the characters in the story is Agnes Auld and she is a cleaner.
Today we had a roleplay session taking on the job of Agnes Auld. We tried hovering, mopping dusting with a feather duster and washing the dishes.
We all tolerated trying these jobs and then reflected on what was our favourite and what was our least favourite.

The Bluebells class had a fun bus outing today. We went for some chips at McDonalds Drive Thru and then went a drive around Kilmarnock looking at different styles of houses. We had been reading our theme story ‘Thistle Street’ and tried to find similar houses and buildings. We found bungalows, flats, semi-detached houses, houses with garages, schools and churches.

The Bluebells class enjoyed a science lesson where they had to identify is objects would blow in the wind. We used a fan as our wind machine and they really enjoyed watching a range of objects fly across the room.
