On Friday the class we introduced to Flexible Friday.  Every Friday the class will complete their set work in the order they choose developing independence.  After they have completed the compulsory set tasks then they work through bonus activities allowing pupil choice.

We look forward to telling you more about Flexible Friday and showing you how this works at our Learning workshop on the 28th of November.

Our finished games for the carnival.

Maths Relay

Maths Carnival

Our focus in PE this term is ball handling. We have been developing this through hockey, basketball and now we have moved onto football. Pupils have taken on a leadership role helping to plan and run stations to develop specific football skills.

Our challenge was to create a game that could be played at the Maths Carnival on Friday. Here is our work in progress.

P7 continued exploring the topic of energy, specifically looking at the transfer of potential energy to kenetic and chemical energy.

Yesterday primary 7 were visited by the Campus Cop to learn more about Online Safety.  We were learning about how to make sure we stay safe when we are online. Also, we talked about what the differences are between the online and offline world are.

We completed some problem solving challenges in class this afternoon with help from Mr McAllister and pupils from Williamwood.  We were working through problems involving pentominoes and ratios.

Primary 7 gathered as a year group to hear a Science Lecture about what energy is. They had to watch energy videos and pick out key facts about the different forms of energy. The boys and girls then made paper helicopters to show how different forms of energy are used. When the helicopters are raised in the air it has potential energy. This is converted to kinetic energy as the helicopter falls.

Welcome to P7a. We are looking forward to a busy and fun year ahead. 

Look out for news from our class.
