Week beginning 13/11/23

Hi everyone

This week it has been Anti-bullying Week and Book Week Scotland. We have been very busy completing work around these subjects.

“In writing we had to write an informal letter pretending to be a character from one of my favourite books. I enjoyed this.” (Aria)

“We created an anti-bullying poster to ensure we know how to look after each other.” (Ephraim)

“We played a game called Pass the Kindness comment and we said nice things about each other. It made me feel happy.” (Jamie)

“We played a game called Be a Millionaire and answered questions about bullying behaviour.” (Finlay)

“In my anti-bullying poster I came up with an acronym for anti-bullying. It was interesting to find out how bullying can impact people and what we can do to stop it.”(Farouk)

Outdoor Learning

This week we learned how to measure the approximate height of a tree and the approximate age of a tree. Ask us about it and we can demonstrate this to you at home.

“We worked in groups and we picked a tree to measure. We used meter sticks or a trundle wheel. I was able to do it “. (Scarlett)

“To find the age we measured the 150cm from the ground and this was our point to measure the circumference. We used wool to measure this and then we found the length by using a meter stick. Once we had completed that we divided it by 2.5.” (Joshua)

” We had to divide it by 2.5 as a tree grows in width by approximately 2.5 cm per year.” (Harry)

“This week has been very busy.” (Haroon)

“Outdoor Learning and measuring the tree was fun different from anything I have done before.”(Harrison)
