On Monday we did our spelling in the morning and then went to the MUGA for P.E. We played dodgeball and running. After break we did persuasive writing about the school uniform and if we disagreed with it or not. After lunch. We did social studies on democracy and war for our new topic.

 

Tuesday we were off because teachers were striking.

 

On Wednesday we did indoor P.E. we did our own P7 Olympics, we all got into groups of 5 or 6. We did a long jump, javelin, shot put, and sprinting. Since we didn’t have proper items we used rings and foam javelins. After break we did our maths corrections and there was also a mental maths board task once you finished. After lunch we did Science about the bodies organs, skeleton, etc. At the end of the day, Harris played the chanter for us.  He played “Scots Wae Hae” for Burns day. 

 

Thursday morning, we read our class novel, ‘Remembrance’. After break we did mental maths and Mrs Hutchison came in to do Spanish with us. We learnt how to say different family members in Spanish. After lunch we finished off our Spanish vocabulary and then started to make different shapes with clay. We used pencils as a replacement for the item pottery makers usually use. 

 

Lastly on Friday, we did our war topic and made a timeline and then drew poppies or the war trenches. After break we did Flexible Friday where we finished off our spelling and mental maths, and then went to assembly.
