Hello everyone 🙂

It has been a busy couple of weeks in Primary 4! We have been learning about dried fruit and it’s journey from farm to fork as part of a whole school project. We strengthened our ICT skills working in groups to create PowerPoint slides, we baked delicious oatmeal raisin cookies and we are going to try and make our own raisins from grapes in the classroom. Yesterday we watched a video about Tesco and how they get the raisins that have in their stores. We discovered it is a very long process to make raisins from the grape vines they start as to them being packaged and sold in the store. Something we don’t normally think about as we go and get them from the shop. We then worked in groups and broke down the journey of the raisin and wrote about it (some pictures below although they are finishing the drawings to match and adding a bit of colour this afternoon).

We also worked in groups a few months ago to mummify an orange and we took them out to see what happened to them this week.

We have also welcomed back Mrs Miller, who worked with the class in Primary 2, to help us learn some new multiplication and division strategies.

Have a lovely weekend everyone! 🙂
