3, 2, 1, Blast off…

Primary 6 were blasting off to the planet of maths! We have been working on getting to Mars to bring back some mars bars for hungry teachers.  We have had to solve different puzzles (missions).

We worked in our house groups to solve a puzzle. Each year group had a different puzzle to solve. Overall the winning house was Flemming.

In science we were learning about forces. We had a rocket and we had to launch it to see if it went faster going up the way or down the way.  It went faster up the way because of the force of the air pushing it up.

In Big Writing we wrote an imaginative story called ‘The Day Time Stood Still’. We also did more Moving Images this week where we made predictions based on a story called ‘The Present’.

We have been learning about the life of Victorian children and the types of jobs that they would have to do. Thank goodness we all get to go to school!
