In Science we explored how and what items float and sink. We tested different objects in class.

In the forest we learned how to make little rafts and then explored if they would float in the stream beside our forest site……they all did!

Making dens in the Forest

April 12, 2018 User deactivated Leave a comment

P1/2 this term have been making different dens.

It started off with little ones for our fairies whose homes were blown away by Sneezy the Dragon.

We then made dens in which at least one person could fit in to.

Finally we learned how to made square knots, which we used to help us make a freestanding den with a tripod. In all of these tasks we were learning the skill of working with others.
