Tickled Pink

• Outdoor learning was really fun this week and we have been enjoying the lovely weather! We were learning about grid references and the rule of ‘going along the corridor and up the stairs’ to make sure we get to the right box. We played a class game of connect 4 where the children had to say a grid reference and then put a coloured cone. We have played other games in class using grid references like guess the square and introduction to the game Battleships.
• Learning about how the land of the local area has changed over the years was interesting – we got to see Seafield and Livingston developing on the video. We then had fun exploring Google Maps, looking at the school and our own houses. We even spotted Zac playing football on Google Maps near the school!
• The children have loved doing more times tables this week and challenging themselves. We did some colouring in for times tables and games too.
• Learning about being safe in the sun was interesting because we learned about how sun cream is made and how it protects us and acts like a shield. The children wrote about how to keep safe in the sun and the different things you should do (wear a hat, sun cream, glasses, drink plenty of water and spend some time in the shade).

 

Green for Growth

• Some of the children were working on the 8 times table and found it a bit challenging but they are excited to keep practising. The colouring in times tables sheet was a bit tricky because there were so many boxes to work out and colour in.

 

Our lead learners are Noel and Connor – well done!

 

Have a lovely weekend,
