Merry Christmas everyone!

We have had lots of fun creating Christmas crafts this week. We created a 3D Christmas card, a tree bauble a nativity collage and a 2023 calendar.

Today we had our Christmas Party and we had a great time. We played the corners game, pass the parcel, musical statues and musical arms. We also did a lot of great dancing and made it really hard for the teachers to pick the best dancers. Here are some photos of  a great day!

We continued our engineering challenges today  by using Kapla. Firstly we constructed a structure from one of the Kapla books. Then we constructed our own bridges. Here are our constructions.

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?
