Holywood Hullabaloo

last week from Wednesday to Friday all the P7s [apart from two] went to Wallace hall for p7 induction days. one of my favourite parts was actually the bus. I made a lot of new friends. My favourite subjects were P.E, information technology, design and technology and science. in design and technology we got to make key chains. In P.E we played a massive game of capture the flag our team won. in science we got to burn magnesium when it got hot enough it started glowing bright white. in maths we done colouring in. Well not  colouring in we had to find out how many patterns we could make with three colours [which i think is silly because i done that in primary two] we were going to do maths on the second day but we ended up doing health and well being which i found very boring. There was a photographer who came in the middle of health and well being to take a photo of our class so when we are leaving high school we can look back at it and see how much we changed! We had biology as well all that was is the teacher giving us a tour of the classroom and showing us were everything was. We also did a safety quiz and what the different danger/warning signs.

 

 

My free days at high school were amazing we done lots of fun things like .

football : I tried out for the football team .

English : In English we watched part of a movie and write about are self  .

maths : In maths I was fastest person at adding numbers in my head so i got to lean a mind reading trick .

art : In art we coloured in and got a sweet  .

social studies : I was terrible at social studies .

science : We used Bunsen  burners .

assembly : We got are tie .

 On Wednesday Thursday and Friday the p7,s went on induction day and some went to Wallace hall. In maths we got to colour in football strips. The football strips we did all the different combinations we can make with 3 colours. In History we where learning about the worlds oldest man from 4300 years ago and he died when he was around 40 years old and he was found at the top of a glacier. In art we had to make our names into monsters we put teeth, eyes, toungs, noses and mouthes on them and we could put hats on them but some people didn’t. In English we did a word search I found about 2 thirds of the words because they where quite hard to find. in d&t we did 1 point perspective 3D shapes. In French we where answering questions a ,b ,c or d  in sign language.

Bus

In the morning at 07:15 we stepped on the bus and drove in half an hour to Thornhill. When we got there we waited on school for around 30 minutes because school started on 9:15.

Science

We started with our risk assessment in science. After we knew all the risks in science we started to talk about what we do in science last time we made paper rockets ! And in the last ten minutes we lighted some Bunsen Burners.

English

In English we got dictionary’s and a word scrabble to improve vocabulary. And we had a small book with some games to improve our spelling also we had a listening story with questions every 5 minutes of the story.

Spanish 

We had a quiz with questions about Spain I wasn’t the best with it but i had quite a few answers right.

French

We also got a Quiz about France how well you know about France. It was about everything in France French cheese (Brie) , Monuments, Cities And it’s President.

Maths

In Maths we had to colour in football strips and look how many different combinations there are. (Pretty Boring)

Information Technologies

In IT we had a kind of quiz the teacher said 5 words and we had to guess where he is thinking about and that for every word ! we went on the computers and played Kahoot a quiz where we pick a answer like guess the music or guess the food and the person with the most score wins and it was amusing and enjoyable.

We made a bug hotel for out door learning so i’m going to tell you how to make it. You need dry wood and place it down in a nice corner and build it up and then get sticks at make a roof. Then get a smashed up plant  pot and place it any where.  In the hotel and and place thin sticks in the fence howl then find like plastic bottle’s bricks and diffrent type of sticks.Then you can add leaves.

We made a frog hotel

step 1: First dig a hole about                                                                                                             20 or 25 cm .

Step 2: Squeeze the  pot in to the hole.

Step 3: Then put the  wet mud on to the pot you might haved to do it a few times

Step 4: Then put leaves and sticks over and you are done.

 

I made a frog pond. What you need is a big tub and water and stuff to eat. They will need to be able to get in and out. If you want to make a lader with a slide that will help them.                                                                                                                                 

step 1 ; dig a big hole about half a meter deep

Step 2 :get  a pot and wet mud and mud and Water

step:3 you need: spades,pots,leaves,and mud

 

Step 4:  stick the pole into the mud and stick it with wet mud

Step 5: You need rocks to keep it down in the mud.

The frogs will jump  in the holes and be safe from predators.

We were doing wild life projects for outdoor learning. people were making hedgehog houses and dens so people could help wild life come back to our school. I cleaned and fixed the grass mat in the woods now nobody will trip and wild life wont get stuck and trapped. I loved out door learning we should do it more well i hope you liked this short bit of out door learning bye!
