P1 have been learning about numbers to 10 and have been practising reading, writing and counting these numbers. We had lots of fun today working on this in an active way during our numeracy time.

Counting out objects carefully

Working on our numeracy skills on the computer

Using plasticene

Painting numbers

Writing numbers and finding missing numbers in a sequence

Working together to match numbers and objects

Primary 5/6 watched videos today and learned why volcanoes erupt.  They then set up an experiment following instruction to make a volcano erupt.  Afterwards they learned how to report their findings in a science report.

“It was fun to see the explosion as soon as the soda was put in.” Kayla

“I really enjoyed making the volcano because this is the best experiment ever!” Eve

“I liked watching the chemical reaction because it was so fast as soon as the soda went in.” Kacey

“I enjoyed the experiment because the bubbles began to erupt very fast like it does in a volcano.” Bethany

“It was very satisfying the watch the volcano erupt.” Charlotte
