Lots of fun things are happening in the P1/2 classroom. We have had more exciting visits from Ms Crooke where we have been looking at pulleys and magnetism. We made a cable car for Pulley the soft toy dog, and we had fun playing lots of games involving Magnets.
We found branches, sawed them up and made giant catapults using elastic. Ivan managed to fire his furthest. It was fun.
This is the Nessie marble run being made.
We are delighted to have the chance to work with Ms Crooke ,an amazing Artist. She is working with us to produce Art work linked to our Science , which is Forces and Electricity.
We brought in toys which “go” , from home. We talked about how they work and which forces they used. After this ,we talked about what we would like to make for our first Art project with Ms Crooke. After lots of discussion we decided that we would like to make a Nessie marble run . Watch this space for further developments!
We held a sharing assembly on Friday. Every girl and boy in the whole school brought a piece of work that demonstrated how we had learned new skills or developed skills we already had. Some people brought their Beautiful Thoughts poems and talked about their presentation skills and use of simile. Some of us brought our disgusting food from Mr Twit’s beard, maths work or pieces of collage. We were all pleased to talk about our work and how our skills were improving. We had to show good active listening skills, giving good eye contact, encouraging and asking questions.
