Small World Space
The P6/7 Nurture Group grafted again in the garden today and created this small world space for the infants in one corner of our garden. We hope to see the infants out there soon with cars, animals and dinosaurs having fun.
Outside Maths
We love it when the sun is shining and we can go outside for maths. This week one group were learning how to write their two times table and the other were using an array of wood to make the link between multiplication and division.
Back from our holiday Monday P5/6 are very busy…..
Graft!
The Nurture Group learned a new word today – graft! My goodness did they work hard, creating two new spaces in our garden. One of these is an outdoor seating area with enough log seats for a whole class. The second area is for creative play and has lots of different sizes of logs so the children can build their own creations. I think PJ deserved his lie down at the end of the afternoon.
We still have lots to do in the garden creating more spaces so more graft will be done in the coming weeks.
Active Learning in P5/6 this week..
We also picked 2 new pic collage team members to help record our memories…
P6 have loved meeting their buddies this week….
P7 News Report
In class out topic is the Republic of Ireland as we are going to do a performance for St. Kents .
Our class went out in to the garden to try out the new trim trail.
In class we are doing a critical essay for St. Kents and it is about a poem called Timothy Winters and we have done a lot of fun things to do with that.
Mr Riley and Mrs Gallagher came up from St. Kents to talk to us about the things to expect at high school and give us our transition jotters to write our essay and topic work in.
We have been on lots of trips this year like the Risk Factory, two ceilidhs, a maths day, school camp and our end of year trip is going to be at Monster Mania.
School camp was very fun and we did activates like pole climb, tree climb , a nature walk and living out doors.
