PE

Indoors, we have been beginning our gymnastics unit. We showed off our dynamic forward rolls, pencil rolls and teddy bear rolls!

“We we’re learning about different rolls. My forward rolls were excellent.” – Emily

Outdoors, we began our tennis unit. We practiced balancing and bouncing the tennis balls with and without a racket. We even managed to play a couple of rallies.

“We were doing ‘keepy-uppies’ with our rackets. My favourite part of the lesson was the rallies at the end!” – Ben S

    

Tinkercad

Primary 5 have been experimenting with ‘Tinkercad’, an online tool used to create 3D models. We have been using this to create digital models of the Titanic.

“We needed to use the 3D design tool to create every part of the ship and the iceberg. When we have done this we can then create stop-motion.” – Adam and Caleb

Make £5 Grow

In collaboration with Virgin Money, we have been looking at the topic ‘enterprise’ and have been given the opportunity to turn £5 for each pupil into a business venture. We will be designing, creating and advertising our own products.

“We have been given £5 each to create and advertise a product. I am thinking about creating bracelets as a potential product.” – Mariia

“My group and I have been discussing what products we could create. We are considering creating cupcakes. We will need to use our leadership and creativity to turn our business into a success.” – Archie
