Hello and welcome to our Class Blog. Our teacher is Mrs Hussain :)
Challenge- To build the tallest freestanding tower in 25 minutes using 20 stick of spaghetti, 1 metre of tape and 1 metre of string.
Problem-The tower has to hold a marshmallow at the top.
We used teamwork, communication, co-operation and various problem solving strategies to create the most successful tower.
The winning tower was…….41 cm tall!
Today we went out to bounce eggs as a continuation from our science fair last week.
Today we did some problem solving involving the Pascal’s triangle. We used a variety of problem solving strategies to solve the problems:
We learned about triangular number, tetrahedron numbers and square based numbers.
We then learned ways to work out many real-life scenarios using the Pascal’s triangle. For example choosing a set number of books or balls from a pile. We were blown away!
In preparation for high school, homework is going to be a little sporadic from now on. This is to prepare you for the different homework you will be getting from the different departments, all at the one time!
This part of the homework is due in on Tuesday 31st of March. This gives you just under 3 weeks to complete this.
Thank you so much for the phenomenal science homework last week.
Please see homework details below for this week. Enjoy!
Due in on Friday the 13th of March along with your t-shirts.

Primary 7 were very fortunate to be visited by a local author called SF Mazhar. She is the author of the Power of Four series and The Elementals.
She gave us an insight on how she was inspired through her Fan Fiction writing online.
Primary 7 were lucky to have a writing workshop with her. We learnt how to structure a ‘Plot Arch’ and ‘Emphasis’ in our writing.
‘We look forward to using this in our writing!’ Ailis.
To celebrate the end of our learning on WWII and Miss Barrett going off on maternity leave, we are having a VE Day Street Party tomorrow.
Please bring in an extra snack if you would like and you’re welcome to wear an accessory in the British flag colours. 🇬🇧
Looking forward to partying with you all. 🥳 🎈 🎉
