Here is a small selection of pictures from the school trip last week.

 

On Friday, the class were creating landscape paintings using acrylic paint – without using paint brushes.

A bird’s-eye view of Primary 5 learning about how helicopters fly.

P5Mh have begun to learn about Forces. On Friday they were learning about the forces involved in flight and were challenged to make different designs of paper aeroplanes to see which worked the best.

The Active Schools calendar has resumed this term. P5MH will be going to gym sessions at the Academy tomorrow, Thursday 8th of January, and next Thursday, the 15th of January.

Today P5MH are working to finish off their Food Chain LEGO videos.

MERRY CHRISTMAS!

On Friday, P5MH were experimenting to see which substances dissolve in water.

On Friday, the class were learning about changes in materials by investigating which substances were effective at melting ice cubes and which weren’t.

As part of our work on living things, we have been busy making stop-motion videos of food chains. Here’s a taster of one of them.
