Ghost Tower – Monday 6th

Hi, on Monday we read/finished a book called Ghost Tower by Andrew G Taylor. I would really recommend reading Ghost Tower and maybe some of his other books. It was scary at some parts but it wasn’t too bad. At the end of the book we got into groups and acted out stop motion pictures for one of the chapters that we had read. Here is one of the pictures that we took.

Galaxies – Tuesday 7th

So… On Tuesday, we learned about all the different types of galaxies that have been discovered. We found out interesting facts e.g. Galaxies are made up from dust, stars and gas. We did art and lots of more fun things. The lessons were quite hard to understand but I got my head around them. Here is a picture of our galaxy, the Milky Way.

Hi! Last Friday all the P7s had a Burns Supper . There was good food and entertainment throughout the whole thing. This is a picture of me and my table at the Burns Supper.

Everyone who spoke done extremely well and the piper, who piped in the haggis was excellent. I was very impressed. I was also very impressed by the Highland dancer.

On Monday, we started our new topic. Space. The first thing we leant about was the Big Bang Theory. It was interesting to see how various people think differently about how the world began. Today (1st February) we began looking at how big the Universe actually is, we used the website. Scale of the Universe. Here is a link. http://www.htwins.net/scale2/
