Mr Atkinson’s comment:
The class had a fantastic time at their Christmas party with the other primary 5 pupils, I was very impressed with the different dance moves! Well done to the pupils who, alongside Miss Campbell, demonstrated Growth Mindset and determination with threading and sewing to create their Christmas craft. I would also like to express my thanks for your support and generosity, I hope everyone has a brilliant Christmas and New Year when it comes!
Primary 7 Lesson
Earlier in the week three primary 7 pupils came to our class to deliver a Christmas themed art lesson. We all really enjoyed drawing and colouring in our penguins and winter settings.
Christmas Party
At our Christmas party we played lots of games like corners, musical statues, musical bumps and a best dancer competition! Some of us even won prizes for winning these games! Afterwards, we went back to our class and enjoyed some food and drinks.
STEM the Flow
We listened to one of the STEM the Flow sessions and during it we were challenged to build bridges using certain measurements out of Lego or KAPLA. It was very difficult to create a stable bridge and when we were testing them we discussed what we would do next time to be more successful.
Our winning design for the STEM the Flow competition can now be viewed here: https://www.keepscotlandbeautiful.org/climate-action-schools/upstream-battle/stem-the-flow/2023-24/crookfur-ps/ we would really appreciate your vote!
Science
We had a great time this week learning about renewable and non-renewable energy that is used in Scotland. Using our summarising skills that we learned in our Literacy lessons, we researched some of the different types of energy and wrote short definitions of them, recorded where some of these energy sources can be found and if they are renewable or not.
