In Art we were looking for signs of Spring.  We have noticed lots of blossom on the trees.  We painted a blue sky, remembering to mix colours to make our paintings more interesting and individual.  When these paintings were dry we used card to print trees on the sky background.  We then used our fingers to put pink dots for blossom on the trees.  It was a messy but fun activity.

As part of our context for learning, Light and Sound, we took advantage of the sunny weather last week to go out into the playground and draw round our shadows.  We have been learning why we have shadows.  Ask your child and see if he/she can tell you! 

P3 and P3/4 will have the opportunity to go swimming for the next 6 weeks starting on Wednesday 22nd April. P3 will go from 11.30 -12 noon, and P3/4 from 12 noon – 12.30.  There is a letter home. Any  offers of help to go into the pool with the children will be appreciated.  

Welcome back to what I am sure will be a very busy final term in P3/4.

Our context for learning is Light and Sound.  Today we did a carousel activity where we thought about;

• What we know already
• What we are interested in finding out about
• Where we will find out about the topic
• A list of activities we would like to do

If any parents/carers, friends or family members can help us in any way we would be glad to hear from you.
