P2.3 Newsletter Term 2 2023

Primary 3/4 investigated Forces and Friction as part of Skills Academy last term. They explored pushes and pulls, carried out an investigation about  how the incline of a ramp affects speed and distance and also learned about friction while carrying out their own investigation into how different surfaces affect the speed of a toy car. Great investigating everyone!

Medals will be announced in 2 weeks time but our class think they did fab and were super representatives for the school.

Well done!

Newsletter term 2 2023-2024

Primary 6 has been looking at the work of Pablo Picasso and his art style known as Cubism. We are really happy with our work based on his style.

In Skills Academy this term we have been looking at design and technology. We have worked as part of a team on different projects. On our final week we brought all of our skills together in order to create a mode of transport for a Halloween character.

We had to work as part of a team to develop a plan for our ‘Witchmobile’ and we could be very creative! We were given a list of resources we could use to build our vehicle but there was certain criteria which it had to meet. It had to be air powered, move independently and have a graphic design logo. Once we had planned our build we then created a graphic design logo on the computer before building our vehicle.

After we were finished we tested our vehicles outside to see how successful they were.

We had great fun and developed lots of different skills.
