This week we have been learning about area in Maths. We took our learning outdoors to measure on a larger scale. We are now able to calculate cm and m. We can calculate the area of squares, rectangles and right angled triangles.

During our topic we watched a video and discussed the story of the Jacobite rebellion. We learned about clans and began designing our own tartan.

In PE we have started to learn the rules and skills of Basketball. In Spanish we are moving on to learning about colours and extending our knowledge of numbers. Our Music activity involved drumming skills. In Art we tried printing, using Robert the Bruce as an example.

Our Pupil Council class representatives were announced and the JRSOs (Junior Road Safety Officer) were appointed after the application and interview process. Well done to the successful candidates.

Wednesday was Roald Dahl Day. We were fortunate enough to all have the opportunity to pick a book at the book swap. We watched Pamela Butchart on an Authors Live event through the Scottish Book Trust website.
