Amusements Parks by P5 and 7

With all the Primary 6’s away to Lockerbie Manor, Primary 6/7 welcomed 3 primary 5 pupils for 3 days. We have been working on designing a theme park in groups of 4.

We were given a budget of £5 million. We had £4 million to design and build the theme park, keeping £1 million back for start up costs.

We were given a design brief and building a budget sheet to keep a tally of how many of each type of ride we have.

We will upload photographs of our theme park when they are finished. In the meantime, here are some pictures of us working co-operatively in our groups.
