Primary 7a

Social Studies
Our topic is Glasgow to link with our class novel “Divided City”. In groups we followed a set of instructions to locate grid references on a map. These grid referneces directed us to famous Glasgow landmarks.

 We then worked as a class to create a display in the class featuring photos of the landmarks, matching a blurb about each landmark and the corresponding grid reference. It was a tricky activity but we worked well together.

Science
We drew tables to record the results of our experiments. Scientists always use rulers to draw lines!

We measured the volume of the water in millilitres. It was important to leave the measuring cylinder on the table so the water is still for the reading. Matty had a very steady hand and did not spill a drop of water.

At another station we had to measure the mass (grams) of different items including a pencil, a pencil case and a jotter. The pencil case was the heaviest item. Can you believe Anthony’s pencil case weighed over 1 kilogram!
