Last week they did a fantastic job creating light and dark comparison scapes. Following on from that, in class we learned about day and night and why daylight changes between winter and summer. We had fun using a globe and a torch to explore this concept, with each child picking a different part of the world to \u2018live\u2019 then we rotated the globe. Next, we moved the globe to the other side and discussed the difference. We also learned about nocturnal and diurnal animals.<\/p>\n<p>This week in art, the children had so much fun ice-painting. They mixed colours on blocks of ice and using salt to increase the rate of melting in places. They enjoyed swirling and mixing their chosen colours.<\/p>\n<p><img loading=\"lazy\" decoding=\"async\" class=\"alignnone size-medium wp-image-1071\" src=\"https:\/\/blogs.glowscotland.org.uk\/sh\/public\/fairisleprimaryschool\/uploads\/sites\/2249\/2024\/08\/29103518\/Ander-2-225x300.jpg\" alt=\"\" width=\"225\" height=\"300\" srcset=\"https:\/\/blogs.glowscotland.org.uk\/sh\/public\/fairisleprimaryschool\/uploads\/sites\/2249\/2024\/08\/29103518\/Ander-2-225x300.jpg 225w, https:\/\/blogs.glowscotland.org.uk\/sh\/public\/fairisleprimaryschool\/uploads\/sites\/2249\/2024\/08\/29103518\/Ander-2-768x1024.jpg 768w, https:\/\/blogs.glowscotland.org.uk\/sh\/public\/fairisleprimaryschool\/uploads\/sites\/2249\/2024\/08\/29103518\/Ander-2-rotated.jpg 945w\" sizes=\"auto, (max-width: 225px) 100vw, 225px\" \/> <img loading=\"lazy\" decoding=\"async\" class=\"alignnone size-medium wp-image-1074\" src=\"https:\/\/blogs.glowscotland.org.uk\/sh\/public\/fairisleprimaryschool\/uploads\/sites\/2249\/2024\/08\/29103610\/Luca-2-225x300.jpg\" alt=\"\" width=\"225\" height=\"300\" srcset=\"https:\/\/blogs.glowscotland.org.uk\/sh\/public\/fairisleprimaryschool\/uploads\/sites\/2249\/2024\/08\/29103610\/Luca-2-225x300.jpg 225w, https:\/\/blogs.glowscotland.org.uk\/sh\/public\/fairisleprimaryschool\/uploads\/sites\/2249\/2024\/08\/29103610\/Luca-2-768x1024.jpg 768w, https:\/\/blogs.glowscotland.org.uk\/sh\/public\/fairisleprimaryschool\/uploads\/sites\/2249\/2024\/08\/29103610\/Luca-2-rotated.jpg 945w\" sizes=\"auto, (max-width: 225px) 100vw, 225px\" \/> <img loading=\"lazy\" decoding=\"async\" class=\"alignnone size-medium wp-image-1073\" src=\"https:\/\/blogs.glowscotland.org.uk\/sh\/public\/fairisleprimaryschool\/uploads\/sites\/2249\/2024\/08\/29103531\/Heidi-2-225x300.jpg\" alt=\"\" width=\"225\" height=\"300\" srcset=\"https:\/\/blogs.glowscotland.org.uk\/sh\/public\/fairisleprimaryschool\/uploads\/sites\/2249\/2024\/08\/29103531\/Heidi-2-225x300.jpg 225w, https:\/\/blogs.glowscotland.org.uk\/sh\/public\/fairisleprimaryschool\/uploads\/sites\/2249\/2024\/08\/29103531\/Heidi-2-768x1024.jpg 768w, https:\/\/blogs.glowscotland.org.uk\/sh\/public\/fairisleprimaryschool\/uploads\/sites\/2249\/2024\/08\/29103531\/Heidi-2-rotated.jpg 945w\" sizes=\"auto, (max-width: 225px) 100vw, 225px\" \/> <img loading=\"lazy\" decoding=\"async\" class=\"alignnone size-medium wp-image-1072\" src=\"https:\/\/blogs.glowscotland.org.uk\/sh\/public\/fairisleprimaryschool\/uploads\/sites\/2249\/2024\/08\/29103524\/Harris-2-225x300.jpg\" alt=\"\" width=\"225\" height=\"300\" srcset=\"https:\/\/blogs.glowscotland.org.uk\/sh\/public\/fairisleprimaryschool\/uploads\/sites\/2249\/2024\/08\/29103524\/Harris-2-225x300.jpg 225w, https:\/\/blogs.glowscotland.org.uk\/sh\/public\/fairisleprimaryschool\/uploads\/sites\/2249\/2024\/08\/29103524\/Harris-2-768x1024.jpg 768w, https:\/\/blogs.glowscotland.org.uk\/sh\/public\/fairisleprimaryschool\/uploads\/sites\/2249\/2024\/08\/29103524\/Harris-2-rotated.jpg 945w\" sizes=\"auto, (max-width: 225px) 100vw, 225px\" \/><\/p>\n","protected":false},"excerpt":{"rendered":"<p>P2 have enjoyed using the laptops to type up their news for the Fair Isle Times.
