Sensory Shakers

We love exploring our senses in our class. 

We made sensory shakers by mixing water, pva glue and food colouring. Then we popped in some glitter!

Then we mixed it all together and looked at the results. 

Bubble Snake

We took part in a science experiment today in which we made Bubble Snakes!!!

We stretched a J cloth over the end of a plastic bottle and secured it with an elastic band. 

We dipped it into a solution of vinegar and washing up loquid. The smell of the vinegar was quite strong!

Then we went outside and blew into the bottle and made some really cool long snakes!

Census Time

We are learning all about what the census is and why we take part in it. 

We took a poll of the classes to see if the most popular names from the last census  where in our school. 

We took part in a whole school project too in which we put our finger prints on the school tree alongside the rest of the school. 

Holy Communion Day

Today we got to see our friend all dressed up in her First Holy Communion day. 

Balloon Art

We read the book the hungry caterpillar today. 

We got some balloons and used them to make the body for a caterpillar. 

We will use the paint brushes to make his feet and eyes. 

Jigsaw Art

We experiment with a new type of art today. We are going to explore the nature of negative space. 

We placed jigsaw pieces in our desired shape. We had hearts, stars and houses. 

Next we used sponges to dab paint on our pictures. We are excited to see how they turn out. 

Our finished work

Let's design!

We cut out several different shapes and each made a different picture using our imaginations. 

We all came up with a different ideas!
