Something very exciting happened in Primary 5 last Thursday afternoon. A sealed box was delivered to the classroom. We looked at it, passed it around and all had a shake. Then we had a good think about what might be inside. When we opened the box we discussed each object. There was an empty bottle, a plum, a wooden circle, a gold belt, two white balls, a dice, a shell, a small light bulb and a whirling drum!<\/p>\n

The children discussed the first object that they noticed in the box.<\/p>\n

”The first thing I noticed in the box was the plum because it\u2019s a darker colour. It looks soft as if it has been in the box for a few days.”<\/p>\n

”The first thing I noticed from the objects was that they are objects we might see or use around our school.”<\/p>\n

”The first thing i noticed from the box was that you may find a bottle and a shell at the beach”<\/p>\n

We thought about different ways that we could use each item in the box.<\/p>\n

A group of children suggested we make a racetrack with the belt. They used the small and big white ball to race down the track.<\/p>\n

Others suggested we use the empty bottle and some stones to make a musical instrument.<\/p>\n

A few pupils made a slingshot with a few other items and the small ball.<\/p>\n

Some of the children thought they could make some new jewellery with the belt and shell.<\/p>\n
