This is week one of our Numeracy homework block. Worksheets linked to previous learning will be sent home on a Monday to be returned on the Friday.  This block will run for three weeks. Any questions please contact the school office.

A wee sneak peak of P7 from photo day… stay tuned for the official photo.

On Thursday we had fun taste testing different Scottish and Finnish snacks and we compared them and rated them out of ten.  We sampled Tunnock’s Teacakes and Shortbread from Scotland and Kex Bars and Choco TV Mix from Finland.

The Teacakes were a clear favourite. The Choco TV mix was very popular as there were so many different flavours in the pack although we discovered the white Lakrifun sweets were actually liquorice, which was an unwelcome surprise for some!

It’s been another busy week in P7. This week we started our photography topic. We explored what makes a good photo and went outside to practise taking some landscape and portrait photos of our own.

We also had a trip to the Science Centre where we  explored all three floors and a trip to IMAX to watch the animal kingdom documentary. A few of us got some jump frights as reptiles and sharks came our way thanks to the 3D glasses

On Thursday we put our cooking skills to the test by making a delicious pot of lentil soup.  We chopped up onions, peeled and grated carrots and sliced leeks to add to the lentils and vegetable stock. Our patience was rewarded in the afternoon when we got to tuck in to a tasty cup of soup, complete with a slice of soft white bread to dip in.
