This week we carried out a few different experiments. Float or Sink was one of the questions? We were very confident in most of out predictions!! And then we made telephones out string and plastic cups -no big phone bills for us!!!
The Sungazers were confident individuals as they enjoyed a visit from the pet therapist recently.

The Moonbeams group worked hard this week in streaming when we were estimating and measuring our arms and our heights. We had to work in pairs and had good fun doing this!

As part of our Stone Age – Flintstones theme, we looked closely at Stonehenge this week. We learned where it is situated and how it was formed and then had a challenge to create some Stonehenge models and replicas ourselves. We loved doing this!

The Moonbeams class are very excited about Steven Brown and Harris McCoo’s visit on Thursday. We created a giant Harris McCoo with coloured tissue paper. We have also been practising the song and dance ahead of his visit which we have thoroughly enjoyed!
The Sunflowers class enjoyed our recent social education outing where we went on the school minibus and drove around Kilmarnock looking at different homes. We looked at the police station and took a picture to compare it to the house PC Plum lives in. We took a picture of a local shop to compare it to Penny Pocket and Suzie Sweet’s shop. We looked for different coloured house just like in Balamory.
We had a special McDonalds Drive Thru treat too!
Thank you to all pupil, parents and staff who donated to our Harvest Table. The Ayrshire (East) Foodbank was very grateful for the huge amount of food we delivered this morning.

In the Stone Age caves, people found evidence of handprints that the cavemen had left. We wanted to create our own hand stencils and did this through working with a partner using paint.
