Museum Visit

On Wednesday 15th June we went on a visit to Tankerness House Museum.


We were all very excited.  There was so much to see.


We all really liked watching the birds flying in the zoetrope.






Looking closely.


We all loved the fishing game.



We were very high up here!



Can you tell who this is?


The guns and cannons proved popular!


Not quite the same as Tesco!


Writing on here is tricky!

The Story of 19

We have been learning the addition and subtraction facts for the story of 19.


 We went into the gym hall for some active learning.


 We were each given a cone with a number on, and then we had to find someone with a different coloured cone with a number on that we could add together to make 19.


We then wrote down the four facts for our two numbers.


We had to find two addition facts and two subtraction facts.

Knex Workshop

Earlier this term we had a session working with Knex. 
 First we had to work in pairs to create an alien.






 Then we had a go at building a cube.
 Finally, we had to build a space craft for our aliens to travel in.
