Group 1 Spring Activities

Group 1 have been busy completing Spring activities during their IDL time. We enjoyed observing and recording all the signs of Spring outdoors. We have been pairing baby animals with their parents and learned about the life cycle of a frog. Following instructions group 1 made their own paper frogs. We enjoyed acting out the Easter story and making our own story boards. Group 1 made Easter eggs and put their favourite things inside. We also explored symmetry in nature, made our own symmetrical butterflies using paint and completed some symmetrical patterns in class.

Group 1 Science Electricity

Group 1 have been learning about things that use electricity. They have also learned about circuits, made a circuit clown with a light up nose and spinning bow. Next they used the circuit to explore whether different items in the class were conductors or insulators. We also added a switch to our circuit and explored adding more batteries to get a brighter bulb! They also explored electricity and it’s history to understand how life has changed because of electricity

 

 

Do Bigger Hands Hold More Cubes.

Group 1 have been measuring different lengths this week. They have used cubes and rulers to measure their hand lengths. Next they counted how many cubes they could hold and investigated if bigger hands could hold more cubes. They stood in order of hand length then stood in order of how many cubes they could hold. One pupil also plotted the results in a graph.
