P6 Rainforest Topic

Primary 6 have been learning about the rainforest for our new topic. We have been put into groups and we made our own explorers that were going to the rainforest with Dr. Wilbur Jones. We have made our classroom into a rainforest with trees and animals. We have learned that there are lots of animals, waterfalls and plants in the rainforest. The rainforest is a huge place but the biggest one is in Brazil and it’s called the Amazon rainforest. There are lots of people living in the rainforest, over 200 million people. In art we made rainforest people with Mrs Millard.

P6 Recycled Rockets

I made my rocket out of drain pipe, plastic cups and bottles.  It took about 2 weeks to make, the hardest bit was to stick it all together.  I really enjoyed painting it and my Papa helped me finish it.

Basically, I started off with a coca cola bottle and then I used special tape that is paintable.  After that, I used a toilet tube and made a slit, I pulled it tight enough to go over the top.  Finally, I taped it with the tape.  For the shuttle I used two toilet tubes taped together, then I used a small amount of a toilet tube and cut it to a point, taped it down and for the wings I used a pizza base and cut two wing shapes out of it.  Finally I added a triangle for the tail fin and painted it!

My rocket is made out of an empty juice bottle.  The wings are empty toilet roll tubes.  I covered it all in white card, cut out the wings and stuck them on.  We painted the top of it and the wings, then covered it in stars.  I enjoyed painting it the most.
