Inukshuks- Outdoor Learning
 We have been using natural resources to build 2D and 3D                               Inukshuks.                                  
“I preferred building the 3D because its not lying down. I had to build the stones on top of each other, which was harder. It was important to choose the right stones to balance” Sean
“We build 2D Inukshuks because we thought it would be easier as it would take less time. We didn’t need to try and find the right stones to balance on each other. We could challenge ourselves next time to build a 3D one” Emma Ormsby
Brilliant Blog
Primary 3.3…WOW! What a fantastic blog. I loved hearing about your work on the book Silly Billy. Making worry dolls seems like such a great idea.
I really enjoyed seeing the wood work you were doing to ‘Make Wind Power’. You were all being very responsible and it was great to see you all show such great maturity when using the saws.
The shapes that you were making in gymnastics were very impressive. I don’t think I’ll be trying that any time soon!
It looked like you were all having a really positive experience taking part in hotel role plays and I’m sure that this helped you to understand everything in your tour around the Eglinton Arms.
Keep up the great work Primary 3.3. I look forward to seeing what you do next.
