Electricity - how to make a complete circuit

Here the children had to light a bulb, sound the horn and also a make a fan go round. It was a success and fun activity. The following are some photos taken during these lessons.

Is-Simar

Last Friday our class together with the year 3s, went to the nature reserve 'Is-Simar' Here the children had to work out handouts and go through the paths and observe trees, insects, birds etc. We also had a guide to help us through.  
The following are some photos I took during this outing.


About Is-Simar Nature Reserve
Is-Simar is an oasis amongst a valley of agricultural landscape. The reserve takes its name from the sharp rush (Is-Simar in Maltese) which is regenerating throughout the reserve. The wetlands provide a safe haven for both resident and migrating birds.


Made up of a mosaic of habitats including open pools, reedbed, and trees, Is-Simar is teeming with wildlife. The pools are attractive to aquatic birds like herons, rails and kingfishers, but also provide a home for the rare and protected Mediterranean Killifish and species of rare tassel-weed. Is-Simar Nature Reserve is a fully protected bird sanctuary, a Ramsar site, and a Special Area of Conservation within the EU Natura 2000 network.

It was a fun day for all!

The lion and the mouse

Also last week the children listened to the story 'The lion and the mouse'. After discussing the story and understanding the lesson it came from it the children did the following drawings Well done all!



















Il-pitirross
