In science we have been learning how different animals communicate.

In maths this week, we did the sumdog competition. We used the chrome books, we tried using our own devices but sadly these did not work!

In writing we created our own imaginative stories. As well as writing interesting stories with a beginning, middle and end we were to use lots of VCOP, check that our grammar, punctuation and spelling was all correct.

In P.E we continued developing our tennis skills. We also played tennis games (1v) with the winner being the first to three points.

On Monday we went to Blair Drummond Safari Park. At the park we went through the safari park and saw a variety of animals (including lions), then we went on the boats to chimp island, after that we watched the sea lion show which was full of incredible tricks.  We then had lunch and played in the park before going to the birds of prey show and then getting the bus home!

In Bikeability we went out on the road and were practising; safe starts, safe stops, left turn from minor to major roads and major to minor, and right turns from major to minor roads and minor to major. Our assessments will be next week.

In Social Studies we were learning about the effect volcanoes have on people. We took notes then carried out research on the volcano that has erupted recently in Hawaii and gathered information about how people have been affected by it.
