Mountains out of Clay

by

Balmoral have created the most amazing mountains out of clay, manipulating with both hands and using tools to create different textures and effects. We can’t wait till they dry ready to glaze, paint and add detail.

Money

by

Some of the Balmoral children visited the local supermarket to practice our money skills. We have been learning to use the correct coins to pay for our shopping and also the change we should receive . We bought some amazing snacks!

All Steam Ahead! ☁

by

After recapping the water cycle, we watched a kettle boil and talked about what we could see. We discussed that the steam is like a cloud and then watched what happened when the steam cooled on the mirror. We explored the mirror, realising it was wet with water and compared this to rain.

Rope Skills

by

We had great fun learning about belaying and rope skills for climbing. We learnt to tie knots and also how to coordinate our  movements to support the climber we are working with. We discussed some of the safety procedures when climbing, and the importance of the ropes.

PE Climbing

by

We are loving our new topic. We have taken part exploring different ways and techniques to over come obstacles. Balmoral have taken part in climbing ladders, walking inclines and declines and climbing over larger pieces of equipment.We definitely burnt off some energy 😀
