In their Outdoor Play session today, the P1 and P2 children searched for sticks outside. They used their sticks to carry out various measuring activities.

  • P1 - find a stick that is longer than your shoe and one that is shorter than your shoe.

  • P2 arrange the sticks, shortest to longest.

Mrs Calderwood read the story, Stick Man by Julia Donaldson. The children had to decide what their stick might be - a pencil, a walking stick, a drumstick, a wand, a microphone. They drew these in the air.

Afterwards they chose a stick to make into a Stick Man. Have a look at their lovely Stick Man display.
