This week we have all been scientists! We have been looking at materials and their properties. We have done lots of experiements this week, such as, making our own glue and writing instructions for this, completing a hankie experiement to see where fabric would dry best, learning about materials that are insoluble and soluable – Miss McKenna was very impressed that we could use this scientific language. We are looking forward to next week for our St Andrew’s Day assembly where we will sing our Scottish song that we have been practising with Mrs England.

On Tuesday we read the book ‘The Paper Dolls’ by Julia Donaldson. We all made paper dolls which was good fun! Look out for them outside our classroom.
We have also been learning about the police service as part of our topic. We took some finger prints and some of us enjoyed dressing up as a policeman/policewoman!
We also really enjoyed Primary 5’s assembly this morning. What great singers they are!

We had a great start to the week at Forest School – cold but sunny! We were working on building dens this week and we are hoping they are still intact on the 18th so that we can finish them off. Here are some photos:
We also celebrated Elle’s birthday at Forest School and she kindly brought chocolate cake for us to enjoy in the Forest… YUM!
