Skipping for the British Heart Foundation

We had a busy day at the end of term completing our sponsored skip.  It was great to have our friends from Primary 5 there to encourage us and showw us some of the skills they had learned.

 

 

Before we started, we took part in a warm up with Mrs Linklater.  Then we were all set to go!

 

 

We all worked hard to complete as many skips as we could in 5 minutes.  A few people were absent due to illness so they will have the opportunity to complete the challenge at the start of the term.

We were very grateful for the juice the staff at Picky gave us at the end.

 

 

I wonder how many skips these people did?

 

Pancake making in Class 2

 Last week we worked together to make some pancakes.  We followed each of the instructions carefully and then enjoyed eating the finished product.  

  Can you describe what we are doing in each picture?

 

 

 

Can you bounce back?

Since we came back from the holidays we have been doing lots of activities in pairs and groups. 

We have all enjoyed these activities and everyone has co-operated with their friends to complete the challenges.

 

 

We have also been talking about how we can 'bounce back' when we are in situations which make us feel sad or angry.  In our groups, we have been looking at some pictures and discussing how the people could work out their problems. 

 

 

This is a piece of work we will continue to work on to ensure we feel good about ourselves in classroom and the school.
