Mr Atkinson\u2019s comment:<\/strong><\/p>\n

This week the primary 5 pupils were very excited to meet their future P1 buddies and give them the letters they wrote! The P6 children enjoyed listening to the author, Martin Stewart. Next week is going to be packed with some fantastic events including the Celebration of Achievement and Pop UK which you will hopefully hear about at home. Despite the heat the class has done a fantastic job with watering the courtyard plants and pocket garden. Also thank you for all the birthday messages!<\/p>\n

IDL \u2013 Natural Disasters<\/span><\/strong><\/p>\n

Chloe –\u00a0<\/strong>This week Mr Atkinson gave us the scenario of responding to a natural disaster of our choice. We worked in groups to form an emergency relief team and then we were tasked to create an early warning system by using the Microbits. Some of us included sounds, animations and the shake function to detect motion. We also used Tinkercad to design natural disaster-proof buildings and created presentations on what to do if our natural disaster occurred. We then presented to Mr Atkinson our emergency relief plan.<\/p>\n

Outdoor Learning & John Muir\u00a0<\/strong><\/span><\/p>\n

Emma –<\/strong> We searched the woodland area in the school to find an item to sketch and to base our poems on. We then drew the object by using our knowledge of shading and different types of lines.<\/p>\n
