Primary 1 were delighted to receive a visit from the fire fighters as part of our People Who Help Us topic. We got to try on the uniform, sit in the fire engine and even have a shot of the hose! Thank you very much for taking the time to come and see us!
Primary 1 are always keen to develop their mathematical skills and they enjoyed developing their knowledge during Muddy Movers today.
Some people used the large pipes to create 2D shapes – triangles, squares and rectangles and someone even discovered that they could make a circle using the curved pipes.
This was a very long bug hotel.
Other pupils worked co-operatively to create a long bridge that spanned a distance.
We were impressed by the patterns that were created using the stones.
We also used the stones and wood blocks to measure the length of the sticks. We then decided to hold the sticks together to compare them.
The pipes were also used to measure the whole length of the playground. One pupil discovered that they were different thicknesses and that some pipes fitted inside the others.
Our large scales were also out to investigate and we weighed the different wooden blocks to find the heaviest and lightest.
We had great fun learning and developing our ability to use our skills in different ways.
