We had lots of fun trying out the new skipping rope Miss Marsh ordered for us. Lots of children queued up to have a go and show off their skipping skills. We can’t wait to get it back out tomorrow! Thank you Miss Marsh!😃💕
Break time fun! 👟😀

Super Scotties session 👟💨🏃
This morning, we had lots of fun whilst working on our communication and listening skills. We were able to play lots of different games where we worked as a team to achieve a common goal. We can’t wait for next weeks session ☺️
3D Shape Making🍬
Today, in Magic Maths, we made some 3D shapes using marshmallows and cocktail sticks. We talked about what 2D shapes we could see that the 3D shape is made from.
Animals and their Habitats 🐞🦔🐟
We began our lesson today by recapping habitats and then played a silent matching game to match the animals to their natural habitats. We then used our silent signals for agree and disagree to show our answers. This generated some fantastic discussions about how some animals had more than one habitat which we used later in the lesson.
We then used a Venn diagram to compare the different animals who lived in an urban habitat and a woodland habitat and discussed those such as foxes and hedgehogs which could live in both.
To finish our lesson and really challenge ourselves we tried to answer the question “Why wouldn’t you find a polar bear in the forest?”. Again this generated some good discussions and we used our previous knowledge of the basic needs to animals to help come up with a collaborative answer.
Great work everyone!

We are scientists..
Over the last two days we have been looking at habitats – the 4 different habitats we have looked at are coastal, woodlands, urban, pond. We got given an animal and we had to stick them to the correct habitat.
What a blustery day 🌬️
The wind didn’t stop us having a great time at Scottie’s, it was very difficult to work against the wind but we absolutely smashed it showing resilience and determination to succeed 💪
Geographical Zones 🌎🗺
This afternoon, we continued our expeditionary learning by looking how the earth is split into 7 geographical zones. We found out the 7 zones are: Equator, North Pole, South Pole, Tropic of Cancer, Tropic of Capricorn, Northern Hemisphere and Southern Hemisphere. With our new found knowledge, we labelled a map with the zones.
