Eich Sylwadau Tywydd

Penny Dacey, 16 Tachwedd 2020

Helo Cyfeillion y Gwanwyn,

Rydw i wedi mwynhau darllen eich sylwadau a gweld eich lluniau o'r diwrnod plannu. Rwy'n falch i weld cafodd pawb cymaint o hwyl yn plannu'r bylbiau ac i glywed bod chi'n mwynhau cymryd eich cofnodion tywydd. Daeth fy hoff sylw wythnos yma o Ysgol Pearson; roeddent yn hapus ei bod wedi bwrw glaw oherwydd y gallent gymryd darlleniad glawiad.

Dyma rai o'r sylwadau rydych wedi'u rhannu â'ch data tywydd hyd yn hyn:

Data tywydd

Pearson Primary School: Yay it finally rained a bit. Athro'r Ardd: It makes me very happy to think that being able to take rain measurements means you are happy to see it rain. Keep up the good work Bulb Buddies.

Our Lady of Peace Primary School: Hi Professor Plant its K* and A*, we are having so much fun doing this job thank you again from K* and A*. Athro'r Ardd: You are welcome Bulb Buddies, I’m glad you are enjoying the project!

Llanbedr Church in Wales Primary: We may need to look at the location of our rain catcher. Athro'r Ardd: If you have noticed that the rain catcher is being blocked in some way then it would be good to find a new location. Well done for observing this Bulb Buddies.

St Joseph's Primary (North Road): We've really enjoyed planting our bulbs and have set up our rain gauge. We're really looking forward to collecting our data! Athro'r Ardd: Fantastic work, I’m happy that you are enjoying the project.

Ochiltree Primary School: So fun and I enjoyed checking the measurements so much. Athro'r Ardd: Fantastic, keep up the good work!

Stanford in the Vale Primary School: A mild week with sunshine outbreaks - cannot believe we are in our 3rd week of observations! Athro'r Ardd: Time flies when you are having fun, keep up the great work Bulb Buddies.

St Peter Primary School (Plumbridge): We enjoyed our first week recording. It was very fun recording the temperature and rainfall. Athro'r Ardd: I’m glad you are enjoying the project, you really are super scientists!

Eich planhigion

St Patrick Primary School (Drumgreenagh): We enjoyed taking the temperature and the rainfall this week. We can`t wait until they bloom. We look at how they are doing every now and again. We hope we done a good job at looking after them. Athro'r Ardd: It sounds like you are doing a fantastic job Bulb Buddies.

Coastlands School: It has been very wet this week here in Coastlands! We are wondering if this will affect the growth of our plants. We know our plants need water, but surely not this much! Athro'r Ardd: Hi Bulb Buddies, thank you for your weather data and for the concern you’ve shown for your bulbs. It is possible for plants to receive too much water and this can cause damage and stunt growth. The plant pots you use have holes in them to help drain excess water. I would only worry if you notice that the soil becomes saturated and that puddles form on the surface for long periods of time. I would also like to check that you are entering your rainfall in mm and not cm measurements, as your rainfall does not seem to be overly high.

Llanedeyrn Primary School: On Monday we noticed a tip appearing from one of the pots - a daffodil bulb. Through the week 6 more tips of the daffodil bulbs are appearing. Athro'r Ardd: Fantastic work Bulb Buddies. Maybe you could take photos before you finish for the holidays and compare them when you are back in school!

Arkholme Primary School: A lot of leaves fell on the bulbs this week which gives them a nice blanket. It's been very wet this week but four bulbs have sprouted. Athro'r Ardd: Well done for watching your bulbs closely and spotting the first signs of growth.

St Mary Primary School (Co Down): Hello Professor Plant. We have planted our bulbs and we are waiting and watching for them to grow. We can't wait to see the flowers bloom. Athro'r Ardd: I’m glad to hear you are keeping a close eye on your plants Bulb Buddies, keep up the good work.

Carnbroe Primary School: No shoots have come out the plants yet. Athro'r Ardd: Well done for keeping watch of your plants Bulb Buddies.

Ochiltree Primary School: I really enjoyed planting the bulbs it was really fun and exciting. Athro'r Ardd: I’m glad you are enjoying the project Bulb Buddies.

Cofnodion Tywydd Wythnosol

Penny Dacey, 12 Tachwedd 2020

Helo Cyfeillion y Gwanwyn,

Rwyf isio rhoi diolch mawr i chi gyd am eich gwaith caled yn plannu eich bylbiau. Wnaethom ni plannu dros 18,800 o fylbiau ar draws y DU! Mi welais o’r llunia chafodd pawb llawer o hwyl yn helpu!

Wnaeth Cofnodion Tywydd cychwyn ar 2 Tachwedd. Mae 'na adnoddau dysgu ar y wefan i helpu paratoi am gymryd cofnodion tywydd. Rwyf wedi atodi hyn rhag ofn bod rhai heb ei gweld eto. Mae’r adnodd hyn yn helpu ymateb cwestiynau pwysig fel pam yw mesur tywydd yn bwysig i’n harbrawf.

Defnyddiwch eich siart tywydd i gofnodi'r glaw a’r tymheredd pob ddiwrnod y ydych yn yr ysgol. Ar ddiwedd yr wythnos, cofnodwch mewn i’r wefan i rannu eich canfyddiadau. Fedrwch hefyd gadael sylwadau a chwestiynau i fi ymateb yn fy blog nesaf!

Plîs gadewch i mi wybod sut ydych yn wneud, a rhannwch luniau trwy Twitter ac e-bost.

Daliwch ati Gyfeillion y Gwanwyn,

Athro’r Ardd

 

Sylwadau a rhannwyd hefo'r wythnos gyntaf o ddata tywydd:

Plannu bylbiau

St Patrick Primary School: We planted the bulbs on 3 November 2020 as it was a sunny day. We had so much fun planting the bulbs, it was a great experience for our class. Athro'r Ardd: I’m glad you enjoyed planting your bulbs Bulb Buddies. I hope you enjoy taking weather records too! 

Our Lady of Peace Primary School: Thank you for sending us bulbs we really enjoyed planting them from K and A. Athro'r Ardd: You are more than welcome Bulb Buddies, thank you for taking part in the project.  

Arkholme Primary School: We planted our bulbs before the half term holiday. The rain gauge and thermometer are set up and we enjoyed collected the information. Athro'r Ardd: Fantastic work Bulb Buddies, it sounds like you have everything under control. Thank you for sharing your weekly data. 

Livingston Village Primary School: We had lots of rain over the weekend so that is why our rainfall was so high on Monday. We have had some of our bulbs dug up so we used our night vision camera to watch and see what was happening. We saw a squirrel and a bird digging at our bulbs! Athro'r Ardd: I’m sorry to hear your bulbs were dug up, but what exciting detective work to find the culprit! I'd love to see the video footage if you are able to share it. It’s likely that the bird was making the most of the newly turned soil to look for food. Squirrels do eat some spring bulbs , but they are also known to dig up bulbs when looking for somewhere to store their food for the winter! If you find that your bulbs are dug up again, apparently sprinkling chilli flakes or powder in the area will deter squirrels.  

Coastlands School: Our professor plant has been wondering if the frosty mornings might effect the growth of our bulbs! Athro'r Ardd: Hi Bulb Buddies, that's a good question. We expect that the weather will affect the growth of our plants and that they will flower earlier if we have a mild winter. Your bulbs will be nice and warm in the soil for the winter. You might like origami booklet resource on the Spring bulb website, this looks at the secret life of a bulb and what your bulb does in winter. 

Casglu data tywydd

YGG Tonyrefail: Helo Athro'r ardd. Dyma ein canlyniadau cyntaf ni o YGG Tonyrefail. Rydw i'n falch o gael gweld yr heulwen!!! Athro'r Ardd: Diolch Cyfeillian y Gwanwyn, daliwch ati gyda'r gwaith da. 

Steelstown Primary School: Our first week of weather watching was good fun. We had to set an alarm to remind us to do it at the same time every day. Athro'r Ardd: Setting an alarm is a great idea Bulb Buddies! Thank you for sharing your data. 

Pearson Primary School: The children loved going down to the garden every day to check the temperature and to see if their plants are growing yet. As yet we have had no rain here, so hopefully we will get some over the weekend and the children can measure the rainfall next week. Athro'r Ardd: I’m glad that the class are enjoying the project. I love that they are hoping for rain so that they can take rainfall readings! Fantastic work Bulb buddies. 

Pil Primary School: There was a lot of rain on Monday! We liked recording the results. Athro'r Ardd: I’m glad you are enjoying taking weather readings. Keep up the good work Bulb Buddies.

Diwrnod Plannu 2020

Penny Dacey, 19 Hydref 2020

Helo Cyfeillion y Gwanwyn,

Bydd ysgolion o ardraws y DU yn plannu eu bylbiau mor agos at 20 Hydref ag posib. Mae hyn yn golygu y bydd y mwyafrif o ysgolion yn plannu eu bylbiau yfory!

Cliciwch yma am adnoddau i'ch paratoi ar gyfer diwrnod plannu ac am wybodaeth ar sut i ofalu amdan eich bylbiau dros y misoedd nesaf!

Bydd yr adnoddau hyn yn help ar gyfer diwrnod plannu:

• Mabwysiadu eich Bwlb (trosolwg o’r gofal fydd angen ar eich bylbiau)

• Plannu eich bylbiau (canllawiau ar gyfer sicrhau arbrawf teg)

A dyma weithgareddau hwyl i gwblhau:

• Tystysgrif Mabwysiadu Bylbiau

• Creu Labelai Bylbiau

Plîs darllenwch y rhain oherwydd maent yn cynnwys gwybodaeth bwysig! Er enghraifft, ydych chi'n gwybod i labelu eich potiau fel mae’n glir lle mae'r cennin Pedr a chrocws wedi eu plannu?

Cofiwch dynnu lluniau o'ch diwrnod plannu a rhannu'r rhain i gystadlu yn y Gystadleuaeth Diwrnod Plannu!

Cadwch lygad ar dudalen Twitter Athro'r Ardd i weld digwyddiadau diwrnod plannu yn ysgolion eraill.

Pob lwc! Gadewch i ni wybod sut mae'n mynd!

Diolch Gyfeillion y Gwanwyn

Penny Dacey, 7 Ebrill 2020

Annwyl Gyfeillion y Gwanwyn,

Rwyf eisiau dweud diolch o galon am eich holl waith ar yr Arolwg Bylbiau Gwanwyn i Ysgolion. Wnes i fwynhau'r project eleni, yn enwedig y sylwadau gafodd eu rhannu efo'r data. Mae rhai o’ch sylwadau wedi eu hatodi ar ddiwedd y blog hwn.

Caeodd ysgolion yn gynnar eleni, ac rwy’n dallt fod hyn yn newid mawr i bawb. Rwy’n dallt ei bod wedi bod yn amhosib i rai ohonoch rannu eich data ar y wefan cyn i’ch ysgol gau. Rwyf wedi bod yn gweithio o gartref hefyd, caeodd yr Amgueddfa rwy’n gweithio iddi yr un wythnos â’r rhan fwyaf o ysgolion. Rwyf wedi bod yn meddwl amdanoch chi i gyd dros y cyfnod hwn.

Rwyf am barhau i sgwennu am y project ar y blog hwn ac ar Twitter. Yn yr wythnosau i ddod rwyf am edrych ar adnoddau a gweithgareddau fedrwch chi eu gwneud o gartref. Wythnos yma rwyf am awgrymu’ch bod chi'n creu llun o gennin Pedr a chrocws a dysgu sut i labelu gwahanol rannau o’r planhigion. Os ydych wedi gwneud y gweithgaredd yma o’r blaen, beth am ddarlunio planhigyn gwahanol y tro yma? Mae Ysgol St Mungo wedi rhannu lluniau o’r gwaith maen nhw wedi’i wneud o gartref, rwyf wedi atodi'r rhain ar y dde.

Mae adnoddau ar gael ar wefan Bylbiau Gwanwyn i Ysgolion. Rwyf wedi atodi amlinelliad o gennin Pedr a chrocws y medrwch chi liwio a labelu. Rwyf hefyd wedi atodi adnodd i greu llyfryn origami am fywyd bwlb. Os fedrwch chi, plîs rhannwch eich gwaith efo’ch athro neu efo Athro’r Ardd ar Twitter (@Professor_Plant).

Mae 'na hefyd lawer o adnoddau dysgu ar wefan Amgueddfa Cymru. Gallwch ddewis rhwng themâu gwahanol, o’r Rhufeiniaid a’r Celtiaid i gelf a deinosoriaid. I’w darganfod nhw, ewch i wefan addysg Amgueddfa Cymru. Bydd y dudalen hon yn dangos rhestr o’r saith Amgueddfa. Dewiswch Amgueddfa o’r rhestr, ac wedyn dewiswch ‘adnoddau’. Bydd y dudalen yn dangos adnoddau gwahanol yn dibynnu ar ba Amgueddfa wnaethoch chi ddewis.

Cafodd rhai ysgolion gyfle i fynd â’u planhigion adre efo nhw. Nid oedd hyn yn bosib i bawb oherwydd fod yr ysgolion wedi cau mor sydyn. Plîs peidiwch â phoeni am eich planhigion, fe fyddan nhw’n iawn.

Diolch eto am yr holl waith caled rydych wedi’i wneud ar yr arolwg hwn. Cofiwch wylio'r blog am ddiweddariadau Cyfeillion y Gwanwyn.

Eich sylwadau:

Sylwadau am ysgolion yn cau:

YGG Tonyrefail: Diolch am y prosiect eleni. Thank you for the project this year. Stay safe and well in the coming weeks. Professor Plant: Diolch, I hope you will take part again next year.
Hudson Road Primary School: This is the last reading we are able to send. We have loved taking part in the Bulb project. Professor Plant: Thank you for sharing your data Bulb Buddies.
St Julian's Primary School: We all took our daffodil pots home today on our last day at school for a while. Thank you for letting us take part once again. Professor Plant: I’m glad you were able to take your plants home and hope you will take part again.
Gavinburn Primary School: Our school closed on the 20th March and only 3 flowers had appeared from our daffodils planted in the ground. Professor Plant: Thank you for the update Bulb Buddies, it’s helpful for us to know that plants hadn’t yet flowered.
Dalbeattie Primary School: School is now closed but we are trying to keep records best that we can although they may not be as accurate. Professor Plant: Thank you Bulb Buddies, great work.
Henllys CIW Primary: All the flowers opened except mine and a spare one . Everyone's opened over the same weekends too. There was another spare one that opened so I took that one home instead. Professor Plant: I’m sorry that your plant didn't flower but am glad that there was a spare one for you to take home. Thank you for all of your work on the project.
Arkholme Primary School: This is the last day we are in school before it closes. Some of the flowers were broken in the strong winds and will not flower. Our teacher is going to check the bulbs when he is in school. Professor Plant: I’m sorry to hear the wind damaged your plants. Thank you for taking the time to update me on your last day in school and for all of the work you’ve done for the project.
Arkholme Primary School: The mystery bulbs are just beginning to bud. The sunniest week so far this year. The crocus flowers have started to open out in the sunshine. This is the last day to look at the bulbs as school is closing for the virus. Professor Plant: Thank you for this final update and for checking on the plants for as long as you could. You paint a lovely picture of your school garden.
Stanford in the Vale Primary School: Hi, This will be my last time submitting the weather data! After 3 years on doing it has finally come to an end! It has been fairly cold this week with not much rain! We won't be submitting it next week because school is closed! Thank you for the last time! Riley. Professor Plant: Dear Riley, thank you so much for the work that you have done for the project over the years. I’ve enjoyed reading your regular up-dates and wish you all the best. Remember to keep following the Blog for links to resources and to the end of project report.
St. Robert's Catholic Primary: This is our last week of weather results as our school closes today. Professor Plant: Thank you for updating me Bulb Buddies, and thank you for all of the great work you’ve done.
Darran Park Primary: Our weather has been a bit dryer this week. Unfortunately our class attendance has dropped continuously throughout the week and these children have not been able to check their plants. We have done this as best we could. Thank you for enabling us to do this project, we do hope that we will be able to do this again. Professor Plant: Thank you for taking part in the project and for updating me. I’m glad you have enjoyed the project and hope that you will take part again.
Sanquhar Primary School: Bulb pots taken home by the children left in school. Professor Plant: Fantastic, thank you.
Ysgol Bro Pedr: Take care of yourselves! Professor Plant: Thank you, and you Bulb Buddies.
St Fergus' Primary School: Our flowers are not far away from opening, the tops are very yellow but no flowers yet. Our school is now closed due to the Corona virus. Professor Plant: Good observational skills and description Bulb Buddies. Thank you for updating me, it’s very helpful to know that some plants hadn’t flowered when schools closed.

Sylwadau am eich planhigion:

Dalbeattie Primary School: Only green leaves- no flower formed - this is like several of our crocus bulbs. Professor Plant: I’m sorry to hear that not all of your plants flowered Bulb Buddies, this sometimes happens. I’m glad that the other bulbs flowered for you to enjoy.
St Fergus' Primary School: We have one crocus fully opened, a beautiful purple one, some more are just about to open. Professor Plant: Fantastic Bulb Buddies.
Carnbroe Primary School: 2020-03-05. The crocuses bloomed early March.We are still waiting on the other bulbs to flower. Professor Plant: Thank you for entering your data Bulb Buddies.
Sanquhar Primary School: We found our bulb bed had been burrowed into. We have replaced the bulbs. None of our bulbs in pots are showing anything yet. We have moved them to a sunnier position. Professor Plant: Thank you for the update Bulb Buddies. Do you have any ideas what might have been burrowing into your flower bed?!
Bryncoch CiW Primary School: I noticed a caterpillar on my daffodil. Professor Plant: Fantastic Bulb Buddies, do you know what type of caterpillar it was?

Llanedeyrn Primary School: I was shocked on how tall it had grown. Professor Plant: They do grow surprisingly tall!
Bursar Primary Academy: 3 of the planted crocus' never flowered. Numbers 1, 15 and 30. We believe this is because these were sheltered from sunlight and rainfall. The Crocus' opened between 24/02/2020 and 05/03/2020. The heights range from 31mm to 98mm. Professor Plant: Well done for thinking about why some plants might flower and others not. This can also be why some plants flower earlier than others.
Litchard Primary School: It shows the difference in temperature when we brought the crocus inside it opened within 10-15 minutes. Professor Plant: This is an interesting experiment to do, bringing one inside while the others are outside and comparing the flowering date.
Hudson Road Primary School: There were two flowers that had opened when I measured them they were both 90 mm tall. Professor Plant: Fantastic work Bulb Buddy!
Drummore Primary School: It is a small plant but its a step closer saving the world. Professor Plant: They are very small and delicate, but can teach us a lot about the natural world.  
Drummore Primary School: They take a long time to grow. Professor Plant: They do, and you’ve been very patient caring for it since October.

Sylwadau am gofnodi data:

Our Lady of Peace Primary School: We are happy to send in data again. Professor Plant: Thank you for sharing your data Bulb Buddies.
Our Lady of Peace Primary School:  Sorry we missed out a few weeks and a couple of days. As we said we are super sorry. Professor Plant: That can’t be helped, thank you for letting me know and for inputting the data you can.
Saint Anthony's Primary School: It was really exiting to check the temperature and rainfall. Professor Plant: I’m glad you’ve enjoyed the project Bulb buddies, thank you for all the work you’ve done.
