After lunch we finished off the ten gurus of Sikhism. With Mr Atkinson we worked on maps of streams and rivers and the other was different types of litter as part of the Upstream Battle project.  We had to find information about the rivers and the pollution in them.

Tuesday

In the morning we did maths some groups started thinking about a poster they were making on the chromebooks and others did a work sheet.

After break we finished our Upstream Battle work with Mr Atkinson.

After lunch we got a work sheet and we had to sort out different sheets into different times and discuss what order they came in.  We were surprised that Blair Drummond Safari Park opened in 1970! Then we thought about things we wanted to do in our new topic.  It’s called Through the Decades and we will be looking at from the 1940s mainly until the 2000s. We want to learn about cars and transport, music, fashion, military planes,

Wednesday

In the morning we done maths and then we went to P.E.  We did some rolls in gymnastics.

After break we did some writing was about imaginative emotions. We made jellyfish diagrams about emotions in different texts  and had to figure out what the emotion was.  Then we used them to make our own writing.  We ticked off parts of our diagram so we wouldn’t use them again.

After lunch we learned about the 1940s. We did some research to explore what was different from now.
