Primary 6b have been learning about the Scottish Parliament this week. We went on the internet using our school laptops and visited the Scottish Parliament website. We used the website to find out information on the Scottish Parliament and how it works, by taking notes in our jotters. We learnt many interesting facts about the Scottish Parliament, for example; there is an election every five years and golf and football were banned by the Scottish Government in 1471, in favour of archery.
This week we have also written a letter to our constituency MSP, Tom Arthur. We hope that he is able to come and visit our school and tell us more about the life of a MSP.
Our first two weeks in Primary 6 have been great. We have introduced a class novel called “Why the Whales Came” by Michael Morpurgo. We are particularly interested in finding more about the character ‘Birdman.’ We have also learned about the Isles of Scilly and managed to point them out on a map. We have been learning some new French phrases and revisiting French clothing and numbers. We are really enjoying it so far. Some of our class have learned to find the perimeter of a shape, some have learned to tell the time and others have learned more about division. Each morning, we have been reading “Billionaire Boy” by David Walliams, it is really funny. Thank you for reading our class blog, where we will keep you updated on our class work.
Au Revoir,
