Primary 7 are discovering their natural environment and starting their journey to achieve the John Muir award. It was a good day to start as today is Outdoor Classroom day, and the right of the month this month is Article 29 ‘the right to be educated about respecting our natural environment.’
Primary 7 learned about John Muir himself and his life, and wrote down what they would like to explore in their playground and at the residential next week.
‘I want to look at ants closely and their behaviours.’ – Matthew
‘How tall can trees grow?’ – Dylan
Everyone has many things they want to explore, which gives us a good starting point.
As part of their China topic P6/7 carried out research projects on an an area of interest. The pupils worked extremely hard and produced excellent projects. Some pupils made Power Points, others made posters and Alexander even made his own video on Origami. This was great as we got to learn about some unusual and exciting things about China. Here are a few examples:
P 6/7 have been learning about poetry and we linked it to our right of the month. Lots of authors around the world participated in an event organised by UNICEF called tiny stories so we decided to take part too. We wrote a poem about what we want for every child, all of them were very good but Alexander Street’s (P6) stood out.
X Factor, footballers, Honey G, Blue Peter. Everyone is doing it, the great Mannequin challenge, so Primary 6/7 decided to join in. We do believe ours is the best.
