Primary 5 pupils have been learning about pneumatic systems. They used syringes and plastic tubing to explore pneumatics and were then set the challenge by Mrs Dyson to design and create a Burger Box Buddy using pneumatics. Pupils worked collaboratively to sketch and label their design, making decisions on what materials to use. They used their creativity and problem solving skills to make their model and evaluated their designs. Mrs Dyson was so pleased with the teamwork skills demonstrated and the creativity shown.

Collaboration, creativity, problem solving and application of skills were all evident as Primary 5 pupils created their Ghostblasters games using Scratch. Pupils learned about variables and used block programming to add a countdown timer and scoring system to their interactive games.

Primary 5 pupils demonstrated their creativity and imagination when exploring Kapla blocks. Mrs Dyson enjoyed hearing about the structures pupils had created, the challenges they had encountered and how these had been overcome. Perseverance, determination and resilience were all demonstrated as pupils created.

Primary 5 pupils worked collaboratively to solve a series of circuit challenges using buzzers, bulbs and motors. After exploring conductors and insulators, pupils used their findings to create a variety of switches to solve the final challenge. Mrs Dyson was impressed with the problem solving skills used and the fantastic teamwork demonstrated.
