This week in Primary 6, we have been busy learning lots of new and exciting things across the curriculum.

In maths, we have been learning all about angles. We learned the names and types of angles, how to measure them accurately, and how to draw angles using a protractor. To finish our learning, we created a fantastic piece of angle art, showing how maths can be creative too.

In P.E., we began Scottish country dancing. So far, we have learned the Virginia Reel and The Flying Scotsman. Everyone worked hard to remember the steps and work as part of a team.

In art, we were inspired by the work of Charles Rennie Mackintosh. We created beautiful stained-glass roses using watercolour paint, focusing on colour and pattern.

As part of our Scottish learning, we started practising Robert Burns poems. We were able to choose from four poems: My Hoggie, Red, Red Rose, To a Mouse, and My Heart’s in the Highlands. We are working hard on expression and confidence when reciting our poems.

In writing, we wrote about a place in Scotland that matters to us. We used descriptive language, as well as metaphors and similes, to create detailed and engaging descriptions.

Well done, P6, for another brilliant week of learning!
