We have had an interesting second week! In numeracy, we have been working on our recall of multiplication or addition number facts. We played games to help us recall quickly and accurately.

During drama, we enjoyed some warm up games before creating sound stories. To create a sound poem, we divided ourselves into teams, chose sounds then added a narrative.

On Friday, we explored our ability to create a method (to melt an ice cube) then evaluate it. Dylan ad Emily were able to melt an ice cube in 5 minutes. We tried squashing, squeezing, wrapping them up, wetting them and jumping on them. We found holding it tightly under cold water worked best.
We weren't allowed to use hot water, if you were wondering!

On Tuesday, Primary 4 were visited by the Challenger Bus crew. The Challenger Bus taught our class about a missionary Mary Slessor and her work in Nigeria. We enjoyed this immensely. We got to to sing songs, ask and answer questions, play games and "CHOOSE YOUR FISH!"

This is the first full week that we have had access to the Scrap Store: a collection of scrap and junk we use in our free play during lunch. There have been so many innovative ideas and pupils cooperating to build structures and invent games. The girl of Primary 4 are working on a climbing frame built from ropes!
