We have been very busy so far this month in all areas of our learning. We ave had Miss Ashmore working with us in class too and have been visiting our P7 class in the red unit twice a week for our Science Champion sessions which just finished this week.
Space
In our topic we have built our own model rockets, done some very good work with a partner on some space themed problem solving, made predictions and then tried out a balloon rocket experiment and also created two special rockets and a launch pad for our bottle rocket experiment.
Check out the link below to watch some of the clips we watched in class to help us. Our rockets worked really well but it was hard for our class photographers to catch them in action!
Numeracy
We have been investigating 2D and 3D shapes. Through lots of practical tasks in school, and in our homework, we have looked at the properties of different shapes, practised saying and spelling their names, made models from nets which we used to make our 3D shape mobiles and built some models.
