Look at our plants go! Our tomato plants have been growing well and the summer sun has helped. We were wondering if they were getting enough light?

P6.2 have been planting ready for summer. They have been planting tomato seeds in the hope that they will grow and produce more tomatoes! We also created an experiment to see the effect of fertiliser on plants.
Tune in for more updates on the plants!
P6 have been making guitars, wiring the Microbits and coding them to make their own guitar. Art, science and ICT in one session!
Primary 6/2 had a great time today practising super skills on their bikes over ramps, see-saws and stairs! What incredible confidence and effort! Well done everyone!!
P6 are using their engineering and electrical skills to create their own robot. This robot uses chemical energy from a battery turned into electrical energy and then into movement to make the robot move. It then scribbles using the attached pens onto the paper.
P6 are taking part in a K’nex challenge. They have to build a bridge that satisfies the following criteria. It must:
be a stable structure.
span a 50cm gap.
hold a weight of at least a textbook.
The best team players will go on to represent Cross Arthurlie at the Barrhead High cluster competition. The winner of that competition will go onto a Glasgow wide and then a nation wide competition.
Primary 6/2 had their first session of gymnastics today. They worked in pairs to create fantastic partner balances. They supported and encouraged each other while communicating clearly to each other.
Today, on the day that a real volcano is erupting, we have erupted our own volcanos. We used our knowledge of chemical reactions and mixed vinegar and baking soda with washing up liquid and food colouring to make magma.
As part of our natural disasters and Earth materials topic, the children have been discussing how the Earth is made up and how minerals are formed. We made some volcanoes to explode next week. This also links back to our chemical reactions topic, but we will see that in next week.
Today we looked at minerals, otherwise known as rocks! The class found out some great facts about a range of minerals. Did you that amethyst is a stone of peace?!
