Shadow investigation

The sun stayed out just long enough this afternoon for us to go out and conduct our shadow investigation. We are looking to see if our shadows are always the same length. To find out if they change length we have chalked around and measured our shadows. We will repeat the test at different times next week (weather allowing) to see if there is any change.

Potato printing

Today we have been doing potato printing. We cut out shapes on potatoes and use them to create some colourful potato prints.

Dinosaurs 2014

Happy New Year!

It's been a great start to the term and there have been lots of changes in school. Class 1, as we are now called, have started our new topic of dinosaurs. This week we have been learning to make dinosaur finger paintings, to take scary close up photos of dinosaurs to make them look real and alive, writing new year resolutions, sorting words into alphabetical order, and making two and three digit numbers using arrow cards and an abacus.
