P2 were learning about the lungs during their STEM topic ‘The Human Body’. They found out that lungs take air in and send out carbon dioxide. They loved making a lung with a paper bag and straw, drawing on the important parts and inflating and deflating it. 🫁👍 #ERCStem

P4 loved exploring the result of mixing cornflour and water today during their STEM topic ‘Changing States’. They were hoping for slime but instead the result was somewhere in between a solid and a liquid. Lots of great discussion followed! #successfullearners #ERCStem

P1 investigated more about Materials in Science today, predicting and then testing which one would be strongest for the 3 Little Pigs’ House. We discussed fair testing and then had fun trying to blow and fan our straw, stick and brick walls down. 🏠🐷#ErcStem

🍃Outdoor Learning 🍃 Primary 5 combined the lovely weather we are having with their line drawing skills. We used the shadows created by the sun against various different objects to draw around the silhouette and create shadow drawings! ☀️ #LfS #creativity @ERCStem #outdoor

P1 were classifying materials in Science this morning, sorting them into ‘soft’ and ‘hard’, before discussing why some materials are better for certain purposes. They decided that glass was too hard and breakable for Cinderella’s slipper in the fairytale! #ERCstem

P2c and P2d had our STEM leaders visit this afternoon. They showed us how to use the BeeBots and we used them to learn about directions. We made them move forward, left and right to find sounds and shapes. We had a great time! #OLMSTEM #ERCSTEM @DigiSchoolsERC

P2 used their estimation skills to count how many conkers they had. They counted up in 2s and 10s and then estimated the final total! How many do you think they collected?🤔🌲@mathsweekscot #CPSSTEAM #ERCSTEM

A first at Carolside, 14 P7 pupils from last session have been awarded the Level 3 Young STEM Leader award. They worked hard to consider the place of STEM in the world and also planned and delivered a STEM activity to younger pupils. Well done! #CPSSTEAM #ERCSTEM @YoungSTEMLeader
