Outdoor Learning – Beach Explorers
Primary 1A had a lovely morning exploring the beach near our school, we sat for 1 minute with our eyes closed listening to the sound of the burn carrying the rain water down from the hills to the sea. We felt very relaxed.
Then we counted out 10 stones and practised our number formation using chalk to write the numbers on the stones. We counted them forwards and backwards to each other.
Then we explored the rock pools, the burns, the stones and gathered some sea treasures to bring back to school with us. We are enjoying increasing responsibility as we learn to be safe in the outdoors.
Wellie Wednesday
We’ve been enjoying Wellie Wednesday. Last week our focus was exploring signs of Autumn. This week we explored our environment in the rain, we collected twigs and created fairy wands. We gathered natural litter to created shape sun catchers. We read a rhyming book and identified rhyme. Of course we practised risky play by climbing trees and crawling in small spaces and we were jumping in puddles 😊
