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 Number 5

The Makaton sign of the week is the letter X.

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.

Elephants have Wrinkles 🐘

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.

This week our Science was all about Colours.

A tray of milk with some food colouring – when you put some washing up liquid on the end of a cotton bud and dip it in colour moves away – it was really cool you could try this at home!!!

Now for the Skittle Rainbow – Shields loved this!

Skittles on a plate then slowly pour on some warm water and wait!!

Amazing!!!

Not about Colour but using a non-permanent marker we drew on some shapes on to the plate added some warm water and watched the shapes move.
