As part of our commitment to Global Goal 13 and to East Ayrshire Clean Green Award and Eco Schools Scotland we went on a local community litter pick.
P4/5 Litter Pick
P4/5 Science
As part of our ‘forces’ topic we were learning about air resistance this week. We made paper aeroplanes and parachutes. We tested them and evaluated then modified them to improve them.
P4/5 Maths
Exploring, learning and reinforcing times tables with Numicon.
P4/5 – Homework Block 2: Oct-Nov
Homework Block 2 will start next week, week beginning 27th Oct.
Homework is posted on Teams.
p4/5 Forces topic
We explored buoyancy and items that would float or sink. We discussed what the items were made of and why they were more likely to float or sink.
p4/5 HWB
Today we were exploring foods that are healthy and unhealthy. We identified which ones we should have more or less of and chose foods that could be a healthy lunch choice. We discussed the impact of choosing too many unhealthy foods and why they are unhealthy.
P4/5 – Achievements
Take a look at our achievements page to see what a talented bunch we have in P4/5!
P4/5 – RME
We are starting our RME topic of religious buildings by looking at Christian churches.
The class worked in pairs. They accessed a web link via our class Team to learn about features of a church. Then they designed a floor plan of a church.
Once complete, the pairs self-assessed their work against the success criteria.
p4/5 HWB and Outdoor learning
We harvested the carrots made in the garden and made them into a delicious carrot soup. We also made bird feeders with apples and sunflower seeds.
p4/5 Forces
Over the past few weeks we have been investigating forces on objects. We have created fair tests, changed variables and evaluated results. We have explored gravity, push, pull, height, friction and water resistance.
