In Science we have been looking at electricity. We have created working circuits using bulbs, motors and buzzers. P6 came to work with us and they helped is to make a Scribble Bot. It was great fun!

We spilt into groups and completed a piece of art work as a team. One group created a Viking Man, one group a Viking Woman and the last group a Chinese Dragon head. We used paint and collage materials. We think they look great!

As part of Social Studies we have been learning about the Vikings. In Art we explored some of the patterns they used in their artwork such as crosses, knots and lines. We designed our own Viking jewellery and carved our designs into clay to create a pendent or bracelet.

We used wool to weave or pleat  our bracelet and necklaces. We worked well to help others.

We have been developing our ability to code in ICT. We have been using Scratch where we have created stories, games and music. We have also used the microbits to display our names and an emotion emoji!

We all had a great time at our Christmas Party! We played games, danced and had great fun! Merry Christmas!! 🎅🏻🎄🌲🧑🏻‍🎄

Today in groups we constructed a track for the Bee-Bot to be programmed to go through. We used a mixture of Kapla and Jenga. Once  we completed our tracks another group tried to direct Bee-Bot round the track! Here are our tracks!!

We all enjoyed wearing either pyjamas or our own clothes to support the charity Children In Need!! We took part in some challenges in the gym hall and we had the chance to buy toys at the  toy sale. Thank you for all the donations!!

Last week was National Maths week. We were not in school so we decided to take part in it this week. The theme was Maths in Motion. We discussed a lot about how maths is used in the real world. We then decided to create a ski slope and design our own vehicle to go down the ski slope. We had to think about the motion and movement of a skier and the best way to build it. We worked with a partner to design and create a vehicle to come down the ski slope and take into considertaion the best speed and length. We tested them and then re-designed them to get them the best they could be. Here are our designs!

Primary 4 had a great time at The Foundry. We had the opportunity to take part in some fab games and activities based around the game of Tennis. Barrhead High School pupild helped us to do all of the activities!

The class loved having adults in to help at Open Afternoon. We created great skeleton pictures using cotton buds an created a working model of the lungs. This was related to our IDL based on the Human Body!
