We used our topic as a stimulus for our Maths lesson today. We investigated scale in order to draw a visual representation of the planets in our solar system and their distance from the sun.

We were very lucky to have a talk from Bob and Colin, from The Jacobite Society, on Tuesday. They brought lots of interesting artefacts with them and came fully dressed in plaid.
The children listened really well and some even got a chance to join in.
Here are some photos of our Jacobite afternoon…

General Information:
We started a Gymnastics block in PE today. We were given the task of creating a routine that included 5 balances. We could choose whether they were individual or partner balances but we had to hold each balance for 3 seconds without losing our balance.
There was some really great teamwork going on…
We had a very busy week in P6B! We were continuing to learn about time and we began to apply our knowledge by reading timetables and learning how important this is for catching buses and for understanding our timetable at secondary school!
P6B were also an audience for P7 at their fantastic show ‘The Great Alloa Story’. Bobbing John was featured so we discovered more about him during our topic lesson and his importance in the Jacobite Rebellions. We used our new information to create a fact file.
We wrote creative stories using a baboon who lived on the moon for inspiration. We discussed inference and deduction to help us answer some questions about the baboon and why he was on the moon while we watched a short video and then let our imaginations run wild!
