Hi this is primary 6/7 we are here to talk to you about our trip to the Glass works. We walked to the glass works in Alloa from Clackmannan it was tiring but fun. When we arrived we had to put on a hair net,baseball cap,safety glasses,yellow jackets and earplugs.

We got split into two groups and taken around the Factory. First we stood up on a step and looked through a shade into a furnace full of melted sand and seaweed. That bit was very hot! We went back into the office to watch the gas change in the furnace. We then walked down the stairs to watch the melted glass get molded. this is the bottle that was made

We went down to the cold end of the glassworks and we saw the bottles getting the date molded on to them we also seen the bottles getting scanned through a big machine .

We also made a Prezi about the visit.

Learning to make headers

Today we have learned how to make headers for our blogs. We had to go on lots of different websites like Lego minimizer and we also used Powerpoint. One thing we had to do was change the colour and the font. On the Lego minizer we had to make our own characters everyone enjoyed it. There was a variety of things to choose like Spiderman,Superman,Stormtrooper and others. Other children in our class helped other pupils on the glow website.
