Tuesday –

We started our outdoor learning week with some reading activities in our upper playground.  Each group carried out different activities – using iPads to record videos of us using onomatopoeia, using a leaf catalogue to find different leaves in our playground, reading a text and answering comprehension questions and enjoying reading in a calm and peaceful outdoor space.

During our maths lesson, we became sustainable citizens and litter picked around our school grounds.  We used our data handling learning to record the amount of litter we picked using tally marks and then created a frequency table of our results.  We will turn these into graphs and charts in class later this week.

We finished our first day of outdoor learning week by playing basketball with Class 2 on the MUGA.  We recapped on all the skills we have learned over the past 6 weeks and used these skills to compete against each other in game situations. 

There were some serious skills on display during the games! Hector took amazing action shots of us too.

On Wednesday, we went geocaching at Pollok Park with Primary 6 and Primary 7.

We followed directions on the map of the Geocaching app and hunted al over the park for the geocaches.  We raced against the other teams and ran as fast as we could to be the first team to find the Geocache.  We successfully found 2 geocaches!!
