Literacy

As part of our ‘fast fashion’ topic, the pupils in P5/6 explored the effectiveness of adverts within the fashion industry. The pupils could explain that clothing adverts are designed to influence people on what they wear and to persuade them to buy their products. Following this, the pupils then highlighted features of adverts and used this knowledge to create an advert for a clothing brand they had created. You can see some of their fabulous designs on our ‘fast fashion’ display.

Maths

Throughout this week, the pupils have been learning to identify equivalent fractions in pictures and have been using this knowledge to create their own set of equal fractions. The pupils also used their ICT skills to create frequency tables to present data collected from their clothing habits school survey.

Other Curricular Areas

Our pupils have enjoyed learning about natural and synthetic fabrics and can now discuss the advantages and disadvantages of using both types of fabrics.
