We’ve had a super busy week in P6/7!

On Tuesday we did a Columba 1400 TEAMS meeting with other schools. It was about values and leadership – we needed to  draw a can or a bottle then put fill it with the things needed to make a good team and we did a presentation to the class.

On Wednesday we did our Tweet project. We were outside dancing for the whole day and  we were organising a party for when we finish it and get the dvd back.

On Thursday we started off with strings, it was our second time back after the summer holidays and it was the first time we played a song. After lunch we played tennis and we made a court and we had to measure it and we also got to play on it.

On Friday we read some Divided City in the morning then after break people from EPIC came in and showed us some instruments that we could maybe play when they come back in to run some workshops for us.  We completed a Minecraft themed escape room as part of our Maths Week activities. In the afternoon we done a knex challenge – we had to build a castle with certain criteria and measurements.

The past few weeks we have been doing this project called ‘Tweet’, which is a dance workshop where we will make our own  movie. 🎥

 

We have been learning about the dangers of smoking and worked in teams to create our own PowerPoints. This afternoon we shared our presentations on smoking with the rest of the class.

This week we did basketball for PE, here is a picture of it.  We played a game where someone was in the middle & they had to try and intercept the ball.

This week we were learning about cool and warm tones and colours. Then we  made our own art.

We also did another K’nex  challenge and Ryan suggested we make the Twin Towers as it’s almost the anniversary of 9/11. We could make a theme park ride or 911 twin towers.

Today for maths we did number bingo, ordering numbers with decimal points (some people even made their own versions) and a matching game.

We also went outside for basketball this week too.

We made poems with P5/6 and we were writing down some ideas for our new ‘Tweet’ dance project.

The class were doing a challenge to make a bridge out of K’nex. We had to make the bridge 1 metre long and it had to hold a toy car.🚘

We also made Paintbox poems at writing time.

We made positive affirmation journals & talked about what we are like as individuals.

Our first full week in P6/7 😊

 

P6/7 had a wonderful day making paper chains. We had one piece of a3 paper each and had to use different techniques to try and make the longest one. At the end some of them were as big as the classroom!

 

P6/7  had another wonderful day, we used paper and other things to make a mini golf course. We had to create and design it and at the end we got marbles and tried them all! It was really fun and we enjoyed it!
