This morning we joined a digital school session on dinosaurs. Fiona from the National Museum of Scotland asked us questions and showed us some amazing fossils. From T-Rex teeth to dinosaur poo, it was really interesting. Did you know a T-Rex jaw is 5 feet long? They also has 60 serrated teeth! But that’s not half as scary as this bunch! Grrrrrrrrrrrr.
This week we had a chance to check how important it is to wash our hands properly. After rubbing some Bug Lotion on our hands, we have checked how germs would spread- our hands glowed under the UV light. We then split into two groups to test what is more effective: washing hands with soap and water or hand sanitising. The results were clear… Wash your hands with soap and water whenever possible. We then learned how to wash our hands following six simple steps to become Soaperheroes and defeat germs.
On Monday, we enjoyed a visit to our school’s eco garden. We discussed the different plants and berries we could see and also looked for insects in the bug hotel!
At the beginning of October we welcomed 5 very hungry caterpillars to our classroom. We watched them grow, change and form their own cocoons. At the end of the October week they finally emerged as butterflies. A week later we set them free in our eco garden, with the help of two P5 pupils.
