Night lining with Grace Guarde . 2nd Class Ms Brady’s
Today we discussed what it must be like to be blind.
Children followed a line in the school woods guided by partners. One child had their eyes closed and were guided safely around an obstacle course.
Great skills in empathy and trust were displayed by all children.
We also tried to be a catterpillar. This was fun. Only the two front people could open their eyes. They tried hard to guide the rest of its body safely around the woods.

Make a Diver
We made a Diver from plasticine.
We attached them to a bent straw with a paper clip.
we added water , closed the lid and squeezed the bottle.
water pushed up the straw and the Diver became heavy and sank.
I released my squeeze and the water came out and the Diver floated to the top again!
