We made a model lung today, to demonstrate how we breathe and how the diaphragm helps the lungs work.🫁
At the start, we were given the equipment needed, but no instructions!
A lot of discussion took place, as well as using our thinking skills and personal capabilities!
Our new topic for term 2 is ‘Toys’. This week we have been talking about our favourite toys. Our P1 boys and girls were given the opportunity to bring their favourite toy into school today. Firstly, we enjoyed a circle time, where each child had the opportunity to name and describe their favourite toy and tell the class why it was their favourite. Then we used our toys to complete a sorting task for different criteria, such as hard/soft, big/small, noisy/quiet. After break, we enjoyed completing an observational drawing of our toys. We also discussed how their choice of toys has changed as they have grown from a baby to a child, and why this might be.
