Recently in P6a…

‘Hello and welcome to our blog! This week it is different as we are telling you about the past 2 weeks in P6a!’ James

 

‘Two weeks ago we did a colour run with our buddies. We ran around the school and parents were throwing powdered chalk at us. We ended up very colourful!’ Molly

‘I had a colourful scalp afterwards, it was orange!’ Heather

‘The reason for this was to raise money for more Outdoor Learning resources so we can have more fun doing these activities.’ Ayyan

 

‘Yesterday with Mrs Hutchison in Art, we had the choice to complete a symmetrical sketch. One half was photocopied and one half was blank. We had to shade, draw and use the correct proportions to complete it.’ Bella

‘I chose the cheetah and in my opinion it looked very nice!’ Harry

 

‘Yesterday, during a Heart Start lesson we learned how to help people who may be having a heart attack, a cardiac arrest, or are unconscious. I tried this out on my sister when I got home!’ Lexi

‘I liked the Heart Start lesson as we learned how to do CPR and other cool stuff!’ Evan

‘We also had an orienteering lesson with Mrs Lamont and we had to find pieces that matched for a game based on map skills.’ Nathan

‘This was really fun, even though it was pouring!’ Molly

‘On Wednesday, we went on another school trip for Health Week. We did things like tennis, yoga, golf and fitness.’ Hollie

‘I enjoyed doing yoga, we learned some new poses like tree, strong and mountain pose.’ Cara

‘My favourite activity was fitness because we got to go on the machines, like the bike and the treadmill.’ Luca Fil

‘At David Lloyd, I enjoyed golf because I’d not done it before!’ Euan

 

 

 

‘On Tuesday, we went to Whitecraigs Rugby Club and did lots of different sports! My favourite was football.’ Lauren

‘We also celebrated the Queen’s Jubilee by having a tea party with our buddies and I really enjoyed this.’ Jess

‘We learned more about the Queen by watching videos and made bunting about things she enjoys, like eating chocolate and horse riding.’ Molly

‘On Wednesday, an instructor called Harry came to our class to teach us about karate. He taught us different blocks, kicks and punches and told us that karate is for self defence.’ Ayyan

‘In writing, we wrote acrostic poems about the Queen and we could chose THE QUEEN, QUEEN’S JUBILEE or PLATINUM JUBILEE.’ Heather

 

 

‘For Outdoor Learning last week, we made bug hotels for insects to live inside. We used twigs, stones and grass to create them. I hope the bugs liked them!’ Ananya

‘Once we had finished we slotted them into pallets that we had stacked together.’ Jess

‘We also fixed up the teepee by using strong tape and sticking it back together.’ Heather

‘In Maths, we had to plan our dream trip to London. We had to plan the train journey, hotel and activities. This was to help us learn about durations and timetables.’ Beth

‘Me and Nathan booked a five and a half star hotel near London Bridge.’ Warren
