Cave paintings

After practising cave painting pupils then created their own cave paintings on the walls of our own cave. Some pupils taped paper to the underside of tables to see how difficult it would be to paint cave ceilings.
As before paint brushes could not be used!

P5/6’s Rainforest Junk Plants

This week Primary 5/ 6 learned about Rainforest plants and about adaptation. Adaptation is when a plant or animal adapts to live in a type of habitat. We created our own species of plants that were adapted to live in the Rainforest using junk. We had lots of fun doing this and made some amazing plants!

Have a look and see what you think.

P2/3 Made Mother’s Day Cards

P 2/3 with their finished Mother day cards.

We folded a piece of card. We chose the colour of tissue paper we wanted to use. Then we cut the tissue paper into circles.

Using glues sticks we glued the circles onto the card, starting with the biggest circle and finishing with the smallest.

Next we scrunched up yellow crepe paper for the middle. Then we finished the flower by drawing the stem and scrunching the tissue paper to make it look like a real flower.

Lastly we wrote ‘MUM’ at the bottom and wrote a message inside the card.

We hope our mums liked their card!
