This week has been another busy one! We have been beginning to try aspects of the integrated day which offers us opportunities to pick what order we want to do our tasks in.

We have done some learning about COP26 in preparation for the event. In teams we came up with an idea for campaign as our P7 focus is climate action. We thought about how we can take action in our community . We came up with lots of highly creative ideas,

– Tackling littering and rubbish

– Encouraging green spaces

– Planting trees and plants

– Sharing the impact of climate change

– Innovating plastic packaging

– More bins in the community

Decimal number line – During active maths we ordered fractions on a number line.  We were focusing on hundredths fractions. In this activity we made cards using decimals, fractions and percentages on them. Then we drew lines on our desks so that we could sort them from smallest to largest. Then we jumbled them up and went to other tables and sorted their number line in order.🙂

We also spent time outdoors today doing maths, we learned about thousandths fractions, multiplying 4 digits by 1 digit and equations.

We also did our solo talks this week and many of us did a fantastic job of presenting on our chosen WW2 topic.

For our work this week got the head teacher award after 1 year!!!

We also Figured out for our Gastronomy topic that our meal ingredients took roughly 27, 500km just for 1 meal. Finally we went outside and estimated how many trees were on our school grounds using grid referencing. It turns out our school grounds capture 14,000kg of carbon each year which is excellent.
