P6/5 have been learning the skills of benchball and enjoyed a spirited game this afternoon. We are encouraging teamwork and cooperation.

Slime Club
Slime club became play dough club today for our last session. We measured our flour, sale, oil and water and then got mixing.
Messy fun
The afterschool slime club had great fun today making oobleck. We were all amazed at the texture and consistency of oobleck. It’s a non Newtonian fluid that acts as both a solid and a liquid. It it’s made from cornflour and water-simple!
Sorry for the messy clothes. It will wash off easily.
P6/5 Interest Stations
This week in P6/5 we began our new block of Interest Stations. We used our critical thinking and creativity skills to create different animals and characters.
One group practiced their fondant modelling skills, whilst another practiced using their hands and tools to create models using air dry clay.
We can’t wait to improve these skills next week!
P6/5
This week we have started to look at information reports in writing. This has encouraged the children in O6/5 to do their own research on different topics that they are interested in. They have used their critical thinking skills to choose what to research, identify the key facts and organise their ideas.
