The 10 Family!

In P1 we have been exploring numbers that add to make 10 and trying to quickly recall some of these facts.  We have worked with lots of materials to make number pairs that make 10.  We worked with a partner to see if we could find five different pairs and write them all down.

Happy Valley

We had such a good time yesterday exploring Happy Valley.  First we went a walk through the woods to see what it was like, then we split into groups.  Lindsey helped us to do pond dipping and we also made mud faces and dens.

Plants and Animals

P1 are learning about plants and animals this term.  

P6 pupils came to help us plant Nasturtium and Marigold seeds.  We learned about what seeds need to grow.

We have made a Garden Centre in our den.  We are having fun making things and buying and selling.

We are looking after our tadpoles and watching them grow and change.

We spoke about how we know something is alive.  We went outside to find some living and not living things.

We went on a Nature Walk around Stromness to discover what kinds of plants and animals live in our local environment.  We saw lots of bluebells and starlings.
