Buoyancy with Mr Tyler
Today we were blown away by Mr Tyler. We revised forces and continued our learning on Buoyancy. We learned the formula Density= Mass/Volume. We learned that the less volume it takes up the more dense it is and therefore more likely to sink.
Connecting to Digital Technology
Today we connected our personal devices to the school WiFi. We are super excited to be able to use our devices in school. We promise to be sensible!
Battle of Dunkirk
This afternoon we used I pads to research about the battle of Dunkirk as part of our learning on WWII. We used this information to make a cartoon strip of the events that took place at that time.
Mini Debates
This morning we engaged in a mini debate in preparation for our Lord Provost debate.
The motion was: Primary 7 should get to sit benches on at assembly.
Tin Foil Boat Challenge
Today in class we did a tin foil boat challenge in our buoyancy topic to see which boat can carry the most number of marbles. We were given 1 metre of tin foil to create our boats.
The winning boat held 240 marbles altogether!
Enterprise Pitches
P7 have been busy this week coming up with enterprising ideas to have a mini P7 Christmas Fayre for parents and carers. Today we pitched our ideas to our teachers and they chose 10 of the best ideas. We are looking forward to hosting this on Friday 29th November during the open classrooms.
