Cooking- Yesterday we’ve been doing cooking with Miss Harrison.We’ve made lots of different foods like pizza, stuffed pepper, spring rolls and even dough balls!.It is really fun because you can partner up with a friend so you could work together.Cooking is one of the BEST things that class P6.23 will remember.🙂
Pomander- Today we were doing pomanders.Pomanders is a orange with cloves sticking out of the orange with a ribbon(optional).If you want to make it at home this is how you make it, first you get a orange after you get a toothpick and prick holes into the orange with any pattern you want then stick cloves into the holes you pricked into then it will smell really nice.So the orange doesn’t go mouldy add some cinnamon try to get it into the orange. MERRY CHRISTMAS!!!🎅🏼🎄

Thank you PTA 🥳🥳
Among us – As part as our Christmas party we play among us like bingo. You have a grid like a bingo card with 7 letters A,B,C,D,E,F and G and then we had 7 numbers down the way. There were lots of items such as the original among us character which meant you could steal someone else’s points. Then there was the present which meant you could generously give 50 points tosomeone else. Also a bomb when your points would go down to zero instantly.We recently have been doing coordinates which are the Y axes and the X axes. The Y axes is the one up the side and the X axes is the one along the bottom. Our coordinate’s worksheet turned out to be the Grinch. Now Andrew will tell you about the Grinch movie that we watched.

The Grinch –After among us it was lunch time and after that, it was our movie we watched the Grinch it was really funny. Everybody enjoyed the Grinch it was a good movie our favourite characters were the Grinch and Max the dog. Andrew

Primary 6 have been learning how to blend and create an ombré effect using watercolours.
Recently we have played Kahoot in class, we did a quiz on area and perimeter. A pupil from our class had made a quiz themselves and we played it. After that we did another quiz on area and perimeter but it was a little bit harder, and everyone tried their best to come in top 5. There were 10 to 16 questions on the quizzes. For each question there was a timer of 60 seconds, we all tried our hardest to get on the podium!
We all had great fun doing the quizzes, even if we didn’t make it onto the podium or leaderboard.

The weather was not on our side today. It drizzled fairly heavily the whole time we were out before lunch, but it didn’t dampen our spirits and we tackled our given problem with great enthusiasm.
It was an indoor lunch which meant it was just too wet to head outside in the afternoon for more outdoor learning. Instead we stayed indoors and worked on creating a mini Christmas tree using sticks collected outside. We were very lucky to have some experts in the class who had made these trees before. Erin was fabulous at showing everyone how to construct them and we had lots of other eager helpers assisting those who were finding the knot tying a little tricky too.
Despite the cold, wet weather we ventured out and took a stroll through the wood making sure we focused on safety the whole way. We warned everyone about risks as we came across them (fallen trees, jaggy holly, puddles, roots etc)
After that we worked in teams to practise some orienteering skills finding numbered cones around the snowy grass. Teamwork was really important and we had to stick together to work with each other and make sure we found the cones in the correct order.
It then got a bit wet so we decided to head back indoors. On the way back inside inside there was a special request to make snowmen….it was a little wet for that so we had a competition to see which team could make the biggest snowball instead!
After lunch we ventured out again and worked on a logic problem using the snowballs to help us picture the problem. Again the weather stopped us from staying out the whole time so we finished off sharing our strategies to solve the problem back inside.
We put our new multi functional “hi-tech” outdoor clipboards to good use today. After searching for interesting leaves we spent time recording details about them and then working in teams to identify them too. We took part in interesting discussions and gave constructive feedback to each other.
We also played a mapping game and will continue playing more next week to develop our skills in orienteering.
