Doctors, Nurses and...milkshakes!!

17th Jan 2020

After learning lots about the fireman last week we started to learn all about doctors and nurses this week. We learned lots about what sort of equipment they use and lots of their tricky names like a stethoscope, thermometer, syringes and many more. We also tried learning about healthy and unhealthy food and had a look in our lunchboxes and in our classroom to decide what was good for our bodies and what was not so good. We found out that for small Primary One Children, milk is a very important thing to help makes our bodies and bones strong and to help us grow. We learned about what food we can find milk in and even about a special and invisible ingredient called CALCIUM! (Primary one are very clever!!) As a treat for all of our hard work, we wrote instructions about how to make a milkshake and then got to make and drink our very own! THEY WERE DELICIOUS!

 

We also had another visitor this week when Nurse Walsh came to show us lots of equipment that she uses whenever she is working in the hospital. She even showed us how to use some of the equipment and even put Hollie's arm in a sling!! Have a look and see what we have been up to!
