Last week we had a chance to check how important it is to wash our hands properly. After rubbing some Bug Potion on our hands, we have checked how germs would spread- our hands glowed under the UV light (nails were especially bad!). We then split into two groups to test what is more effective: washing hands with soap and water or hand sanitising. The results were clear… Wash your hands with soap and water whenever possible and remember to do it properly!
Today we were making electrical circuits using wires, batteries, switches, light bulbs, motors and buzzers. 
“Outdoor Classroom Day is a global movement to make time outdoors part of every child’s day. On two days of action each year, teachers take children outdoors to play and learn.”
We are so fortunate here in Mearns that part of our school improvement plan is encouraging teachers to take children out EVERY day!
Today we had a marvellous time observing and recording details about leaves that we found. We took part in some activities to help us understand the importance of recording clearly and observing closely.
We then enjoyed working in teams to produce some really creative symmetrical patterns. What a lot of learning went on as we worked together, chatting and excitedly creating them.
