Sounds as if everyone had a great September Weekend, especially with the glorious sunshine.

This afternoon we were all excited to observe our salt crystals. The water had evaporated and the salt crystals were left behind. We were surprised by the perfect shapes of some of the crystals.

This afternoon we enjoyed the September sunshine, as we played Football Rounders. Everyone keep safe and I look forward to seeing you all next Tuesday.

This afternoon we finished our versions of Edvard Munch, “The Scream”.

Today in science, we were investigating factors which affect the speed of dissolving.  When our salt solutions reached saturation point we poured some of the solution into a Petri dish. Next we are going to let the water evaporate from the solution and the salt will be left behind.

Due to COVID restriction, this year’s Meet the Teacher  will be online. Please have a wee look at our video.

This afternoon we were recapping on dissolving.  We predicted if materials were soluble or insoluble.

In our Health and Well Being lesson this afternoon, we were looking at how physical and mental health are related.  We then sorted activities to support our mental or physical health and decided whether or not the activity should takes place, everyday, sometimes, if there’s a problem or rarely.

Today each child in the school was given a handprint by Miss Ferguson.  The homework task for this week is to think of 5 words to describe yourself and then neatly write one of the words on each finger.  The palm can incorporate designs and/or your name.  Remember Miss Ferguson is looking for your hand to be neat, colourful and eye catching.

This morning we played some maths games to help us learn more about negative numbers. Unfortunately, because of the heavy rain we missed our PE session with the coach.

Have a great weekend everyone and remember to keep safe.

n Today we’ve been learning about Oobleck.  It is a solid and a liquid.  Oobleck behaves like a solid or a liquid depending on the pressure exerted on it. Press it together and it feels like a solid, let it sit on your hand and it drips like a liquid.

This afternoon, we braved the elements, and played Football Rounders. Although it was wet and windy, it was also hot too.
