Gastronomers Group 2 were in the kitchen on Tuesday and we were joined by Miss Hunter for our lesson. She was very impressed at the excellent skills on display and the wide variety of ingredients and equipment we were using in our recipe.
First, we prepared a garnish made of yoghurt, coriander, spring onions and cucumber. Then we moved onto cooking our tacos which were made out of Quorn mince, tinned tomatoes, kidney beans, onions, peppers and chilli powder.
We were delighted with our finished dishes and canโt wait to cook them at home too!! ๐ฎ๐
Today in P6.22 we began presenting our solo talks to the class. Each of us chose a country which we are interested in and created informative PowerPoints that included facts about landmarks, language, famous people, cuisine and history.
During the solo talks we have been developing our ability to give constructive feedback through peer assessment.
Lots of us included pictures, animations and quizzes to enhance our presentations!
We really enjoyed learning more about different countries and cultures throughout the world.
Today Group 1 of our Gastronomers began our new Mearns Masters Block. Our class have chosen a Mexican theme and we used Quorn and vegetables to create delicious Tacos!
We worked in pairs to chop, cook and serve our dish and added garnish to complete the tacos.
One of our favourite parts of the day in 6.22 is our Daily 5 Maths Challenge. This is included in our targets and we enjoy working together with others in our group to solve the questions.
The topics in the Daily 5 vary through the week and allow us to challenge ourselves by applying our knowledge to problem solving questions or provide continuous revision from earlier topics in Second Level.
We have had a busy and exciting first few days back in Primary 6.22. Today we attended our first whole school assembly and we thoroughly enjoyed being back all together!
In maths, Pythagoras began work on comparing and ordering fractions and will continue to develop this over the coming weeks.
Elsewhere we have began learning more French, today we were practising how to tell others what our favourite sport is and took a class survey to find out which sport is most popular in our class. In science, we have been investigating plants and the functions of the roots, stem, flower and leaves as a part of our new eco-systems topic.
Our February issue of Mearns Monthly Mail has arrived! This month we are donating all of the proceeds to UNICEF and their campaign to support Ukraine ๐บ๐ฆ
Well done to the whole class for an amazing effort with our second newspaper ๐ฐ
Today we were very lucky to have a visit from Aeronautical Engineers, John Stevens and David Lacey. We learnt all about Mars and how space travel has developed to allow us to visit new planets ๐ช we enjoyed an interactive quiz and designing our own drone that would be able to fly on Mars ๐
We then began our very own scientific mission by creating our own Bottle Rockets. First, we decorated and designed them using paper, straws and tape. Then we made mini pouches of bicarbonate soda and filled our rockets with vinegar. This will cause a chemical reaction when we add the pouches and help them to take off ๐คฉ
Our launch will take place tomorrowย ๐๐
