Week 7 - jellyfish and money

We love playing with technic lego in Golden Time. We create lots of different models and machines.

Some people enjoy doing craft in Golden Time. Can you guess what we're making?

We'll put photos on the blog of these when they're finished!

In maths we're still working on money. We're learning about the different coins and notes.

We're practising working out change.

We practise buying things and giving change in the smoothie shop or the P3 and P3/4 shop.

P4 have been problem solving with money. Some of us are very proud of how we did!

We're busy preparing for our class assembly. We've been researching lifeboats ...

... and building our own one.

Mrs MacNab has been really enjoying 'Coastal Show and Tell'. We've had some great things in - like these giant mermaid's purses...

... and Hector the hermit crab!

It's nearly time for the school sports day - so we've been practising. This is our trials for the relay race.

We're hoping we get good weather for sports day.

The animated classroom

 Becky came back to see how we got on making our own animation so we showed her our video.

Becky shows us her animations.

We watched a new animation she had made with lots of different materials. She had made the sound effects from fabric, a sewing machine, poppers and a zip! Then we looked at some other films which she had found which used fruit and vegetables and even cupcakes!

This is one of our favourite animations by Becky.

Our link school has also made their own animations for a competition. We got some ideas from watching what they did. You can have a look at them here:

We made some flick books with Becky. Some of them are really work well and the fish looks like it is jumping or blowing bubbles. This is an easy and fun way to make your own animation.
