ELLI skills lesson in Year 2

Year 2 begun the term with a lesson where we talked about Elli’s friend: the Resilient Tortoise. We talked about how we can be like the Resilient Tortoise and why this is important to help us learn. We then tried to stand up back-to-back with our arms linked with a partner. It was very challenging but we didn’t give up! 

Moving jelly with chopsticks!

 Year 5 undertook a fun science activity which required lots of resilience. The children needed to move pieces of jelly only using chopsticks. After this was completed, cooking oil was added to make the task more slippery.  We discussed the forces involved and what happened when the oil was added.
