Welcome back to P7’s blog. We hoped you had a relaxing two weeks off because we have big plans for this year!!

Monday:

On Monday we welcomed everybody back into class and then got straight into our work. Firstly we completed our guided reading with Miss O’Donnell. After break Miss told us told us that we would be learning about fractions, decimals and percentages within maths. After lunch we were introduced to our new topic- SLAVERY. We are looking forward to learning about slavery around the world and in Glasgow.

Tuesday:

On Tuesday we continued with guided reading and learned what the word slavery meant and what we associate with slavery. Mr McCormack also visited our class on Tuesday to help us with our performance of Tam O’Shanter .   

Wednesday 

In the morning we had Mrs Sheridan for maths. During this time we learned about long multiplication. This was very helpful. Additionally, on Wednesday we had pe. This month we are practicing for an athletics competition.  In pe we practiced hurdles and running as a team. This was very tiring but enjoyable.

Thursday 

On Thursday  we went to holyrood as part of our introduction to first year. This session was a science based. We were introduced to eight science teachers. We learned about our optic nerve and our retina. We also made a box, where we could see rainbow colours because of the reflection of the light. This was an exciting and fun experience which has made everyone look forward to science in high school
