Week Beginning 11.9.23

Hi everyone!

On Wednesday, we were learning about how speed works. We created discussions around what speed is and turned ourselves into different things relating to speed (EG: sloths, motorbikes).  We then had to work in groups to design either a fast or slow car. Pupils had to draw their plans first before creating their car with different resources and tools to help it either go fast or slow. We had lots of very creative ideas such as putting lots of things on the car to slow it down, placing rubber bands on the wheels to slow it down and using ramps to make it go faster!

Today was also ‘The Dot’ day, which is a book about building confidence and celebrating ourselves by Peter H Reynolds. Today we read the book and was inspired by Vashti’s dot and confidence, we decided to create our own dot which related to why we were unique and confident individuals.

Thanks again for a lovely week Primary 2a!
