Fact-files on a Personality in French
Today we presented our super presentations on a personality of our choice in French! Bravo!
Further Yeast Investigations
Today we did an experiment, where we put different levels of yeast and sugar in bottles to see what combinations would release the most carbon dioxide and make the balloons the biggest.
We found adding more sugar didn’t make a difference but adding more yeast made a big difference.
The balloons are still getting bigger and everyone in the class is excited to see how big the balloons grow over the weekend.
Yeast Investigation
Today we did a yeast investigation, to see what temperature is the optimum condition for yeast to work. We used cold water, warm water and boiling hot water.
The sugar and the yeast have started to react and the balloons are still getting filled with carbon dioxide. Everyone in the class are excited to see how big the balloons grow over night!
P3 Weddings
Thank you to Miss MacArthur and Miss Ali for inviting P7a to celebrate their 6 weddings.
We saw a Christian wedding, Hindu wedding and a Muslim wedding and we learnt the differences between them.
Thank you once again and I am looking forward to your wedding Miss MacArthur!
I promise not to talk. :-0
Mouldy Bread
Today we set up an experiment to see which bread will go mouldy first.
We wanted to find out if the different types of bread would make a difference.
We also changed some of the conditions so see which variable will mould first. Wet/light, wet/dark, dry/light and dry /dark.
Watch this space!

P7 Show – Aladdin Vests
Dear Parent/Carer,
Your child will shortly be taking part in a school performance for P7 school show. As always we rely on your assistance to help to organise your child’s costume where possible. As part of the costume for this show, we will be making Arabian style vests which each cast member will wear. To help us to make these vests, we require your child to bring an old t-shirt to school. This t-shirt will be cut and decorated to make their own particular vest. Please only supply an old or cheap t-shirt that you are happy to be cut and sewn.
Each part of our ensemble will require a different shade of t-shirt. We have specified the colour for your child below. If you have any problems sourcing this, please let us know as soon as possible and we will be happy to assist you.
Please can we have these in for Friday 13th March.
As always, your cooperation is very much appreciated.
Yours sincerely,
P7 Teachers
