Last week was Road Safety Week and on Tuesday we were lucky enough to have a visit from some Police Officers. We shared what we had been learning and they gave us some reflective bands and tags to help vehicles see us when we go out at night. Thank you! #RoadSafetyWeek

“Look, we found snow crystals!”
We used the iPad to take photos of ice on the windows this morning.

The children shared a Go Safe with Ziggy book which helps explain the importance of road safety. We made some props for our role play and the children took turns to be the lollipop person, holding up the stop sign to stop the cars.

Our Woodland Adventures are continuing with the Meadow groups. We enjoy exploring the natural environment and are finding lots of different fungi at the moment. Sadly we also find litter during our visits but we always pick it up when we can. @ksbscotland #ecoschool

We have been experimenting with bubbles. We used different materials to make bubble wands. Our bubbles were all different shapes and sizes. We had lots of fun watching them blow away in the wind.

We had a bumper apple harvest this year 🍎 We had too many to eat ourselves, so we decided to sell them. The children helped put the apples into bags, made a poster, became shopkeepers and counted the money. Thank you for your support. #ecoschoolscotland @ksbscotland @_learningforsustainability

On Wednesday we took part in the #handsupscotland Travel Survey. Nobody came to nursery in a taxi and only 1 person travelled on the bus. Most children came by car… we wondered how the people who put their buttons in the ‘other’ pot travelled? 🚂🚁🚀

The Willow Groups have been practicing their running, jumping and balancing skills in the gym hall and outdoors.

We harvested the beetroot that we have been growing in our garden. We carefully cut the beetroot and then used it to print and explore different mark making techniques. #eastrenfrewshire #glenwoodfamilycentre
By Mr Fleming
We have been learning about our bodies. We know how to keep ourselves healthy. We are very interested in what is inside our bodies. We have learned we have a skeleton and are learning the names of some of the bones. We worked together to make our own skeleton.
“ There are lots of ribs.”
“ The spine is long.”
There are little bones in your toes.”
The very cold weather when we returned after our winter break sparked our curiosity about ice as we played in the garden.
This led on to further experimentation… discovering how water turns to ice, investigating ways we can melt ice quicker, using ice in our artwork, rescuing items trapped in ice and even making our own ice lollies!
