This afternoon, pupils in P4.19 enjoyed taking the role of the teacher and sharing their knowledge learned during the Coders pathways in Mearns Masters. 
Pupils showed parents how to code an emoji matrix on a Sphero, create and informative animation on Scratch and how to use the Lego WeDo’s.
We hope all the parents who came along enjoyed the experience as much as we did!
What fun the class had taking part in an engineering Lego challenge. Learning about energy, where it comes from and where it goes. Pupils developed their understanding of sustainability, their ability to work in groups and showed their creative side when applying their new knowledge to create new Lego designs.
A great project to finish off the year together in P4.
What a wonderful trip for the pupils, for many their first school trip!
There was fun had by all in the beautiful sunshine and wonderful activities at Kelburn Castle, many faced and conquered their fears of heights enjoying scenes of the estate from a high, if only we had longer there!
P4.19 have been learning how each and every person is unique and have different skills and abilities. We’ve been looking at different artists and their styles when creating portraits and pupils then chose their own approach to create their unique self portrait.
It was wonderful to see different approaches being taken to make their very own unique representations of themselves.
A very generous and brave donation to the Princess Trust from a pupil in P4.19 over the weekend.
Something to be forever proud of, donating to such a wonderful cause!
Today we continued working on our football skills, beginning with passing then adding in defenders and movement before finishing off our lesson with some scoring opportunities.
We then transferred our passing skills to help with our outdoor learning practising our times tables. 
To finish off outdoor learning we practised our French numbers to 30 with some games. 🇫🇷 
Today the children worked together to work out the answers to their unseen text. This encouraged great communication and practise in reasoning together to come to a joint conclusion.
Following the leader, practising our racket grip, spatial awareness and ball control.
Pupils then very quickly started having to increase their own ‘keeps uppy’ targets and some even moved on to side racket challenges.
.
Lastly pupils completed rallies and increased their level of challenge by increasing our decreasing the distance between partners.
Showing great tennis promise in P4.19!
Today we discussed the importance of water. We revised the properties of water describing three different states of water, as a solid, a liquid and a gas. We also looked at how molecules make up each with pupils helping to demonstrate molecules moving.
Pupils then made predictions about whether different substance were soluble and insoluble. Looking forward to doing more next week!
During the experiment pupils practised measuring water, they learned that to get an accurate reading they needed to place the measuring jug on the table.
Pupils put their learning to the test and creating their own questions to ask the class. Using their knowledge of tally marks they recorded the class answers and then out their computer skills to the test.
Some pupils even experimented with different types of graphs to represent their data and saw how their data would look with a bar chart, a pie chart and began looking at percentages!
Pupils worked together to create questions to test the rest of the class
Pupils then scanned QR codes to find different games to test their knowledge about graphs. a busy few days of learning!
