We have created a display of our fantastic , fierce Viking Longboats. An amazing amount of design and engineering has gone in to all of our creations!

Fairtrade fortnight
Today we used our knowledge of money to calculate the costs of the ingredients to make a banana loaf. We calculated that each loaf would cost £2.50 to make. We then baked banana loaves using some fairtrade ingredients.
In class we sliced the loaves in to 1/10s and then calculated the price of each slice. We decided we would add 10p to each slice if we were selling, making a total profit of £1 per loaf. Then we all got to eat a delicious warm slice !
Technology
L.I- to design and create a model.
We built our own model kelpies from Lego, inter star and card.
Fractions with Shortbread
We have been learning all about fractions in maths. Today we made shortbread and then cut our shortbread shapes into fractions. We then decided what fraction of the shortbread looked bigger ( and which fraction we would like to eat!)
We even cut our tray of shortbread into 1/14ths so that all the staff could try our delicious shortbread.
Leading the learning
Primary 7 came to help us set up our e-portfolios. We have now been blogging each week with updates about what we have been learning and enjoying at school.
