Activity Based Learning

7th Feb 2017

The children dressed up in their camouflage clothing and got their binoculars ready for a spot of bird watching in Primary Three and Four this term. They made a list of what birds they saw.๐Ÿ‘€

The weather seemed to be keeping the birds away, so the children decided that they would make some bird food to encourage the birds to pay a visit to the playground. What a messy job! 

Our own scientists got creative and decided to have a go at the STEM challenge of making a birds nest. This was a tricky job!!!! 

To develop their thinking skills and personal capabilities, the children worked as a team, to play the game angry birds. 

The children got out the scales to find objects that were heavier or lighter than a robin. Did you know that a robin weighs the same as a one pound coin?

 

We are so excited for our visit to Castle Espie this week who knows what we might see through our binoculars!!!
