P1a have been having great fun outdoors in the rain and in the sunshine. We are continuing to develop our problem solving together and enjoy learning from each other’s creative, imaginative ideas!

 

 

 

 

 

London  “We made an abandoned pirates den and it has a secret passage.”

Kerr   ” The water I’m pouring on is the glue to hold it together.”

Finn- “The pegs on the crates zap electricity when touched.”

Lewis-   “I made a potion for the pirates den”

 

 

 

 

 

 

 

We talked about hiding behind the den, sleeping on top of the den and  some children pointed out there was no way to go under the den! Lots of good use of positional language while creating a pirate themed story together.

 

 

 

 

 

Charlie used the tarpaulin creatively, pushing it up as high as he could making it catch in the wind, to create thunderstorm sounds for our pirates den.

We also used our measuring skills comparing how much water some containers hold and had a go at estimating how many cupfuls each contained.  We discovered which held the most/least water.

 

 

 

 

 

 

 

 

 

 

 

 

 

 

We practise our weighing skills too estimating which items are heavier.

 

 

 

 

 

 

 

In our mud kitchen we also have been creative, creating delicious, mothwatering dishes!

 

 

 

 

 

 

 

 

 

 

 

 

Scarlett-  ”I have made a menu with prices for our cafe.”

 

 

 

 

 

 

 

Lewis   “It’s called the Chocolate Maker cafe.”

Then lots of us decided we wanted to draw and write a menu for our class cafe. The prices were quite expensive!

Amazing creativity in P1a outdoors!
