A1/P1 Rainbow Sensory Bin Play

Good afternoon guys!

We all love colours and we all love sensory play, well I know my boys in A1 do! Sensory bins can be used for all types of play and learning. Searching for letters and numbers, developing descriptive language and improving fine motor skills are just a few.  We can fill sensory bins with all kinds of things but one of my favourites is rice. I thought we could show our support to our NHS by following the rainbow theme and making our rice fun and colourful.

What you will need:

  •  Rice
  • Vinegar
  • Food Colouring
  • Things to hide in your rice, letters, numbers, stones, toys, anything really.

What to do:

Put a cup of rice in a container, add 1/2 tsp of vinegar and add some food colouring. Put the lid on the container and shake vigorously. Pour the rice onto some kitchen roll to dry and repeat using different colours.  Put rice into a large bowl and add your treasures.

 

 

 

I tried this at home and the rice does take a couple of hours to dry but once you have made  it you can keep in in an air tight tub to use again and again.  Get your grown up to hide some things in the tub, try to guess what they are just by touch.

You could get your grown up to write some numbers on stones and hide them, add the numbers together and tell your grown up the answers. Or just have fun feeling all the different shapes, sizes and textures.

A1 STEM 25/05/20

Good afternoon A1! I hope you are all keeping safe and well and enjoying the sunshine that has made a comeback.

For our STEM activity this week I thought we could build our very own bug hotels. These can be made from using lots of natural materials (such as twigs, leaves, soil,, some grass, pine cones, etc) and placed in a container like an empty plastic bottle that has been cut, or an old shoe box, or even built up on bits of wood. Here are some pictures to help you get creative Bug hotels. I’ll be building one with my little girl too.

Have a lovely afternoon.

P2/3 HWB 25/05/20

Hello again everyone. As our mini topic is all about the Sea, for HWB we need to think about water safety and what dangers could be lurking when we are near water.

Your task is to create a poster to show others how to be safe when near water (could be the sea, the beach, a swimming pool, etc). Let’s get creative and arty this afternooon!

P1 Monday 25th May – Numeracy

Welcome back! Sorry boys and girls I forgot to publish the Cheeping Chicks activity on Education City but I have done it now if you want to have a go later!

Tune in to the Monday Assembly with Fischy Music.

Today let’s try something new to start with and count back down from 100 to 1.

Join in and try to do all the actions with Jack!

  • Today’s activities have been set on Study Ladder
  • 25th May – Addition to 20
  • Remember to do the Tutorial first, then the Practice activity and use the Activity Sheet but you don’t need to print it – you can write the calculations and record the answers in your jotter
  • To finish off try this Robot Addition Game – work your way up by  adding up to 10 first, then 15 and finally 20. Good luck!
