We are doing a project on technology through time it is really cool. We had to pick something off the white board to find out what it was like back in the old days. Paul is doing a van ,Isla is doing a pram(baby’s buggy), Hamish is doing a motor bike ,Kye is doing a telephone(a phone not a mobile!) ,and I am doing a doll. It is great fun doing this topic if you are a grown-up preferably not a teacher because they are doing it with us you will want to still be in primary school because this is the greatest topic in the universe!! we have to make a timeline on the thing you are making Miss Dale will be looking at them next choose day so we have to get them done quickly!!!

Today we did a practise beetle drive because on Thursday we are going to do a beetle drive and lots of people have replied saying they can come and lots of people are saying they cannot come. It starts at half past 5 you can get soup and a sandwich and hang about talking for a little bit then we do the beetle drive!! This is how you do it:
you get a bit of A4 paper and you fold it in half 3 times.
then you open up your paper and put number one to number four on each corner then you turn it around and do the same on the over side.
When miss Dale peeps the whistle and says go it means that you are ready to start.
If you have finished your whole beetle you shout… BEETLE!!!
Then miss Dale peeps the whist again witch means everyone has to stop even if you are in the middle of spinning the dice.
6-body
5-head
4-mouth
3-antennae
2-leg(you have to role the dice and get a two six times!)
1-eye

Our new gym teacher is called Mr Law he is teaching us rugby this month. He is great in rugby we do tag rugby and on Thursday he taught us how to play capture the flag witch was good fun to play it is a bit like a party game but there is a lot of running about involved. You start of with 2 tags and this is how you get caught… If you are running and someone that is not in your group comes up to you and pulls of 1 of your tags of you are out of the game. 2 people in my group were quite good at their rugby skills because they play in a team with the Dumfries saints. They are Greg and Mark.

Today on Newsround there was a NON–drivable tractor that could move itself around and it could do everything tractors do when humans sit on it but this machine could do it all by itself!
Another story on Newsround was a drone that told farmers when their fields were finished being ploughed by the driver-less tractor.
The last machine story was another drone that went under water instead of in the air. It was made to kill of some species of armoured starfish.

This week primary 4-7 were doing a food and nutrition topic. We investigated how much sugar is in food and drinks. Georgia investigated how much sugar was in a strawberry milkshake bottle it had more sugar in it than a cake and a can of beans. I investigated how much sugar was in a Jaffa cake and a fromage fri and a custard. the fromage frais and the Jaffa cake had the most sugar in them, the custard on the other hand had not as much sugar in it as the Jaffa cake the custard had 7.7g sugar in it. We also investigated how far an egg and banana had travelled. Did you know that our bananas come from Costa Rica?! We tested to see if our eggs floated or sunkto test their freshness. We also made banana posters.
