The pupils worked together to create our class charter. They used collage to create the hot air balloon and drew themselves as passengers.

Together we understand  and learn about our Rights.  (ARTICLE 4)

BREAD MAKING in P3/1

We decided to make bread rolls as we have been learning about the journey of wheat.  This was so much fun!  The bread tasted delicious and the smell was mouth-watering!  Lots of children took the recipe home so you can let me know how the bread turned out.

This term in Science we are learning how make predictions about and experiment with dissolving things in water.
We are learning how to relate our findings to the world around us.

Key Skills
To be able to investigate the difference between soluble and insoluble substances.
To be able to investigate what makes things dissolve more quickly.

Key Knowledge
Dissolving is when a solid gets mixed in a liquid and creates a solution.
A solution is a brand new thing made from mixing a liquid and another material which dissolves in the liquid.
If something is soluble, it dissolves entirely in the liquid.
If something is insoluble, it does not dissolve in liquid. For example, if you put a plastic dice in water, it would not change. The dice is insoluble in water.

We have conducted lots of different  experiments 🧪  first we dissolved sugar at three different temperatures to create a solution. Then we experimented to see if sand, salt and oil dissolved. We also watched jelly dissolving. Lastly we discussed saturation point and carried out an experiment with sugar and water.

SPORTS DAY!

Well done!  It was great to see everyone in house colours.  You all tried so hard with all the potted sports activities.  So many big smiles from everyone!

TELLING THE TIME

We made a memory game to help us revise o’clock and half past, and also to learn more about quarter past and quarter to.  Great team work!

LOOKING AFTER OUR SEEDS

We have planted sunflower and wildflower seeds in the muddy movers area.  Fingers crossed for lots of flowers soon.

WRITING TO THE QUEEN!

We have all written a letter to the Queen.  We wanted to congratulate her on her Platinum Jubilee.  We hope she write back to us!

HOCKEY SKILLS

We are doing really well with our new hockey skills.  We can now push pass and our dribbling skills have really improved.

FRENCH WEEK

Bonjour!

We have been having a great time learning about France during French Week.  We researched Claude Monet and created our own versions of his famous lily paintings.  We also designed our own Eiffel Towers using art straws.  The best part was trying some French food.  The pain au chocolat was a delicious favourite!
