P5 Easter Bonnets

P5 had a very busy week. They worked in small groups to design, resource and make Easter Bonnets. Their success criteria for the task was to work cooperatively in their groups and make sure they all took an equal part in the design and in making the bonnet. The children worked very hard and put together some marvellous creations!!! Fantastic work P5 😀👍🎩🐤🐣🐥🦋🐰

P5 Special Diet Presentations

P5 have been working in small groups to research different special diets. Four different diets were studied: Vegetarian, Halal, Celiac and Diabetes. Pupils had to prepare information posters and present their findings to the class. Children had to listen carefully to the facts for the three diets they had not researched and they had to record any new facts they learned. Great work P5!
