We had a visit from two RSPB workers this week.  We learned more about the birds in Orkney and got to make some food to help feed the birds through the cold winter months.

We have been developing our research and note taking skills.  We had to find out about the diet, habitat and appearance of one Orkney bird.  We then wrote a report and put it in a class book about birds.

 

We have been developing our research and note taking kills.

We had a visit from a fitness instructor last week as part of our Health and Wellbeing work.  We learned lots of new exercises.  The squats were good fun but quite tricky.

We had fun learning to do different exercises.

We looked at some of the equipment that people use to keep fit.

Class 3 have been learning how to play different notes on the keyboard.

Happy New Year!

The children have had a busy first week back at school.  They have been doing lots of work on what we need to be healthy.  The children have been working hard to create a wall display on what they have been learning and have also been writing explanations on how sleep, exercise, water, food and friends and family help keep us healthy.  I am currently having a few issues posting pictures on the blog but I will hopefully be able to post some of the photos I have taken of the children at work very soon.
