P5
had a visit from Donald Macsween from Scalpay today, who told us about a Bronze Age torc he and his fishing partner brought up in their nets. They thought it was a piece of electrical cable and tossed it aside. One evening his fishing partner was watching the Antiques Roadshow and saw something similar- so they took it to Glasgow to have it valued. It turned out to be pure gold and worth a considerable amount. It is currently in the National Museum of Scotland in Edinburgh where you can see it! It’s thought to have come from the wreck of a Viking ship carrying a Norwegian Princess! We really appreciate Donald taking the time to come and tell us his amazing Bronze Age story!!

Tomhas Faide ann an Clas 1-2
Tha sinn air a bhith ag ionnsachadh tomhas faide ann an matamataig an t-seachdainn-sa. Dh’obraich sinn a-mach gur e Katie Morag as airde sa chlas againn le bhith a deanamh co-meas eadar airde a h-uile duine.
Dh’obraich sinn comhla airson tomhas cho fada sa tha rudan sa chlas againn. Chleachd sinn ceuman airson tomhas!
Dh’obraich sinn cho math le cheile agus chord e ruinn uile!
Exploring Circuits
This week we have been exploring circuits in P5-7 EM. We followed plans of circuits, created our own and drew diagrams.
P1-4EM enjoying Zog by Julia Donaldson
We have been enjoying reading the book Zog by Julia Donaldson. We have been learning about rhyming words and enjoyed some challenges to write as many words as we could of a particular rhyming pattern on a white board, whilst P1 had to look at strips of rhyming words and spot the odd one out. P3 and P4 were busy skimming and scanning the text of Zog and highlighting all the pairs of rhyming words they could find!
GM P7 Trip to Edinburgh Day 1
Latha 1
Abair latha trang! Thainig sinn a Dhun Eideann air pleana madainn an diugh agus se a’ chiad turas air pleana a bh’ann airson dithis againn. Bha na seallaidhean alainn a’ tighinn a-steach ged a bha e rud beag “bumpy”!!
Bha Mr MacKenzie a’ feitheamh oirnn agus chaidh sinn an uairsin gu priomh oifisean “Scottish Salmon Company” Chuir iadsan air doigh dhuinn buffet a bha sgoinneil agus dh’innis iad dhuinn beagan mun chompanaidh. Thainig cuideigin an uairsin a-steach le ice-lollies dhuinn, abair treat!!
As deidh dhuinn ar baganan fhagail anns an taigh-osda chaidh sinn “bowling”. Bha e gu math sporsail agus se na nigheanan a bhuannaich!
Spòrs
Ann an spòrs rinn sinn lùth-chleasachd a-staigh am broinn an talla-spòrs. Bha sinn ag obair air a bhith a’ leasachadh na PBs againn fhèin. Chòrd e rinn gu mòr agus bha sinn gu math sgìth às a dhèidh! Ghabh Mrs Brown dealbhan agus tha feadhainn aca gu math èibhinn!
Madainn Fosgailte
Thàinig na pàrantan againn a-steach dhan chlas againn agus sheall sinn dhaibh cuid de na rudan a tha sinn air a bhith ag obair air anns a’chlas. Bha sinn a’ cruthachadh cuairtean-dhealain le “Snap Circuits”, a’ dèanamh obair Coltachd ann am Matamataig. Sheinn sinn “Cur Cùlaibh ri Assainte” cuideachd, òran ceangailte ris an topaic againn air eilthireachd. Sheall sinn bhideo dhaibh de sinne a’ cluiche Sìne Bhàn ann an cèol Gàidhlig. Bha madainn sgoinneil againn còmhla.
