This week in P7A:

In maths we focused on percentages. We changed fractions into decimals and percentages. We also calculated percentages of amounts using calculators. We found out that if you divide any number by 100 you will get one percent then you can times it by the percent you want! We also did some data handling looking at some pie charts and line graphs and figuring out the amount of people that chose what on the graphs!

This week in writing we were writing news articles on our previous writing about what we didn’t do over the Christmas break.

This week in Literacy we were looking at some Robert Burns poems for Burns Day. Our task was to translate some Scots language and answer some questions about the poem.

In PE we focused on fitness. We were going round different stations such as fast feet going through ladders on the floor, we also had a jumping station where we focused on long jumps. There was another activity where we did 30 seconds of squats then swapped to our partners, there was another station that was similar to that where we did 30 seconds of star jumps.

In Outdoor learning we were looking around for any new shoots or growth in the trees and plants! We discussed signs that things are coming back after winter.

This week we got our new topic and it’s about the Suffragettes. We will look at other protest movements later on.
