We worked with Beverly from the Ayrshire Film Company on a project linked to games design. We learned about the genre, music, level design, controls characters, etc and then created our own game designs on huge planning sheets. We all loved it.
We have been learning how electricity flows in a circuit by experimenting with batteries, bulbs and switches. We then tested various materials to see which conducted electricity and which did not.
We all had a fantastic time at our Christmas party this week! Didn’t we all look amazing!!
We had an amazing day last week developing our STEM skills. We designed our own gliders and tested them to see whose could travel the furthest and/or stay in the air the longest. We then learned about sustainability and entered a competition by designing our own sustainable aircraft for the future; the winning team will win tickets to the Royal International Air Tattoo.
P7H loved working with Liam from Senjokai Karate Academy at a recent taster session in school. Stewarton Karate classes are likely to be a bit busier over the next few weeks!
P7H really enjoyed working with Susan learning some Yoga moves and chatting about their mental health and wellbeing.
Happy 5th November to everyone!!
