We had a great time being dressed up today.
P2.6 also invited us to a pumpkin hunt in their class.
Month: October 2021
PE
For our PE this term we’re focussing on gymnastics.
So far we’ve been working on balancing on different body parts and balancing on the bench
.
Maths
We recently took part in Maths Week activities. This involved completing a range of tasks and challenges. Here are some photos of us busy doing maths.
We also created a noticeboard about a famous Mathematician Keith Devlin
Some snippets of our work is displayed on our classroom walls. Have a wee peak!
Planting Beans
We enjoyed reading the book ‘Growing Good’ by Bernard Ashley and Anne Wilson. The characters in the story use some land opposite their house that has recently been cleared of a factory to plant fruit and vegetables. The neighbours argued saying they wanted a car park to be built.
We discussed land use and how planting fruit and vegetables is a good use of the space and that the community all enjoyed growing their own food and eating it.
It was suggested that we plant something. Therefore we planted broad beans.
As scientists we decided to put some of the beans in different conditions to grow.
- one bean has no water
- one bean has been placed in the dark
- another bean has been planted without soil
Here are some photos of us planting them and how they are growing so far.
Maths activities
After our maths lesson we choose a maths activity. We’ve been making shape pictures, playing board games and games on the computer.
Outdoor fun
We’ve been practising throwing and catching balls in PE. We’ve also had good fun using the tennis bats to strike and field.
