SEWING!

We have an Experience and Outcome which encourages us to learn the skill of sewing. We had to create and cut a felt template of a little Bug to begin with. Next we then had to sew the Bug top on the bottom so that we could stuff it. We used a needle and thread to stitch around the edges. Some of us found this a challenge but in the end we persevered with a little teamwork and we are proud of our creations!

Mandarin

Primary 4 have been learning Mandarin this term and having a great time. We have been learning numbers and all about the New Year. We have been writing symbols and signing songs.

 

Gymnastics!

In PE wea re taking part in gymnastics lessons. We are developing our balance, strength, flexibility, agility and our coordination. We also just have some fun!

 

Reindeer Visit!

We had an awesome afternoon thanks to the parent council. 2 of Santa’s reindeer came to visit. We got to feed them carrots and we sang them a few Christmas songs!!🎅🏻🎄🧑🏻‍🎄🦌

 

Climate Zones!

We have been learning about climate zones. We have looked at a lot of different climate zones around the world. We have discussed the idea of how can we can measure the climate. We came up with the idea of making our own rain gauges. We are worried that they may blow away but we have put  them outside! We will check on them regularly and measure  how much rainfall there will be over the coming weeks.

 

 

Children in Need!

We had a fun day raising money for Children in Need. We had activities in the hall  to start with and then we had the chance to buy a range of toys and games.  What  a fun Friday!!!

 

Taekwondo!

We enjoyed taking part in a Taekwondo session. We were able to do some punching, kicking and sparring. We know that we only do this when in a Martial Arts class.

 

Team Work!

We have been learning all about The Human Body this term. We looked at the skeleton and labelled all the bones at the start. Today as a team we had to work together to create a full child sized moveable sketon. We were very happy when they were completed!!💀
