We have been discussing the jobs of engineers and we decided that we would like to try to be engineers. We know that engineers build bridges so we decided to build our own bridges. This week we used Lego to build them. The criteria that we had was the bridge needed to be longer that 30 cm and could hold the weight of a toy bus. All our bridges managed to hold the weight of the bus however some didnt meet the length. Here they are.
Fun with fractions!
We have been looking at Agriculture in Scotland this term. We learned about the journey of wheat and we found out that wheat is a key ingredient of bread. We decided to make our own bread. We measured out all the ingredients and made our own dough. We then cooked it in the oven. It wad messy but good fun! The best bit was we all got to eat our own handmade warm bread just out the oven. How good do these look?
We have been having fun in our group with secret spelling! We used crayons and markers to make our words magically appear. (ARTICLE 28)

We have been learning how to write instructions within our writing lessons. We are making sure that we include a ‘you will need’ list and that our instructions are clear and easy to follow. We made cucumber sandwiches to help us get the right order. We even ate them afterwards😋
On Friday afternoon we all got to go down the the gym hall to watch a theatre company perform the pantomime Sleeping Beauty! We had great fun booing and hissing the evil Queen Maleficent and cheering for the Woodcutter and Aurora. We had a few sing songs too.
