On Wednesday the P7s went to secondary school. We took the buses there and back. we had a mixture of different subjects during the three days we were there.

On the first two days we got taken to our classes, The last day we could make our own way to classes.

Lunch food was great and so was break. It was quite cheap for how much you got. We had a baguette with chicken, brownie and a drink. All together it was £2.

My favourite class was D and T (design and technology). Paytons favourite class was home economics.

 

Today the P6/7 learnt about D Day. D Day happened on the 6th of June 1944 today is the anniversary of D Day. Thats why we learnt about it today. Today was the 79th anniversary of D Day.  The UK, Canada and the US took part in the mission.

MATERIALS: Salt,Sand,Rice,Stones,beakers,Sieve,Funnel,Pipette,Containers,Plate,Pot and water.

INSTRUCTIONS:

Firstly pick out all of the stones and place them in a container.

secondly to separate the sand the rice sieve the sand and salt onto a plate.

Next put the rice in a beaker using a funnel. Be careful not to drop anything.

After that get hot water and put it in a container. Put the sand and salt inside of the container containing hot water. Doing this will dissolve the salt and allow the sand and salt to separate.

Penultimately  Separate the sand from the salt water(keep the salt water) Put the sand in a beaker.

Finally put the salt water in a pot boil the saltwater. This will leave a residue the residue will be salt. Funnel the salt into beaker.

A geologist named David came in to school last week to talk about his job as a geologist. We learned about the oil rigs on the North Sea and how to harvest oil. He talked about the different rocks used to get the oil out  of the sea. He also looks for fossils and he brought in a HUGE mosasaurus skull. The teeth were MASSIVE and we found out it was JUST A BABY!!!!!!

we                                                                                                                                                                            

We also talked about crystals. There was a big chunk of amethyst and loads of other crystals. Like quartz, adventurine, tiger’s eye and many more! It was really fascinating to learn about crystals, rocks, oil and fossils.

GOODBYE  😉 🙂 😉

 

Last week we got a new topic. It is Judaism.  We have started by learning about their place of worship( Synagogue) Shabbat and the Torah. Today i was making my own Torah i have just finished it. Then i’m going to make a poster called “Tour Of A Synagogue”. Containing all of my facts about a Synagogue. Did you know that the Torah is read from right to left? Or that on Shabbat you cannot use electronics?! Well now you know.

Bye!

Today we are doing a piece of writing. It’s about an alien attack? the alien tries to attack a cactus. But it doesn’t really work so he tries again but with a big gun this time but… he makes himself disappear. I have only done the start but i was at french i didn’t get to far before.

Today the P6/7 class went on a trip to the Devils Porridge Museum. My favourite part was the touch screens. They were all about making the bomb mixture? and About people during the 2 world war. The whole class was split into two groups. One group watched short films about the war. Meanwhile the others Explored the museum.  We also got scratch and sniff cards they smelt DISGUSTING. We also got to see an Anderson shelter. Everybody squeezed in to fit so we could take a photo. We went to the gift shop after. I got a notebook.

 

 

All of the P6/7 class took part in this challenge. My group attempted to make lentil and bacon soup. I think we did pretty well until the bacon…. I don’t really think the bacon was cooked lets hope I don’t get salmonella. The potato tasted a little undercooked…but on group cooked fish  so I think they might win( I tasted their fish they’re definetally going to win) .  We also made buttered bread I tried to spread it but it was really hard to spread even when I crushed it to make it softer. It was really hard to cook within 1 hour there was so much to do in such little time.
