Problem Solving

We were doing some problem solving and  used the strategy “acting out the situation”.  We had to pretend to put our garden slabs in order, without any hanging over or without any gaps.  It took a lot of concentration.  ( We didn’t use real slabs, obviously!  Mrs Arbuckle couldn’t carry them into school!)

Launching our STEM FORTNIGHT

Dr Jamie Gallagher launched our STEM Fortnight today at Assembly .  He works  in Nano technology and does super cool things.   He showed us how technology has changed over the years.  He showed us his microscope and showed us insects in detail.  He also had a drone and showed us how it works.  It was amazing. Mr Tyler told us about all the brilliant things that are happening in the next two weeks, including our amazing STEM Showcase on Thursday, 21st March 6pm -7pm. Come along !  It’s free!!
