This week we have been learning…
I learned about finger prints # topic – Ellie p7
I learned about data handling #maths – Annalise p7
This week I enjoyed the yoga challenge in PE #PE -Morgan p7
I really enjoyed doing maths # numbers – Jazmine p7
I learned about the range and mode in maths # maths – Kathryn p7
Last week P7 went to Hillpark for a STEM day.
First of all we made rockets to launch later that day. We made them out of card and sticky tape. Next we had our break and it was delicious.
Then we went to maths and learned how to find the average speed of our rocket. After that we went to science to launch our rockets outside to see how far they went.
After we launched our rockets we went for lunch. It was very tasty.
After lunch we tried to recreate our rockets in ICT. They were amazing. Here are some pictures from the day.

Primary 1 have just finished their first week back after the October holiday. Have a look at all their hard work.
STEM
The children applied their knowledge of their senses and repeat patterns to design and then make fruit kebabs….yummy!!
We finished learning our initial sounds this week but we had great fun learning about x and we made our own x-ray pictures.
At the end of last term as part of our learning in STEM, P7 designed and built earthquake proof buildings and tested them! First we had to build them. we used cocktail sticks and marshmallows.
Here are some of our buildings.
Next we had to test them. We used a tray of jelly because it wobbled like an earthquake! We timed each of our buildings to see how long it stood for.
Almost all of our buildings survived the earthquake!! Although a few did collapse!
We really enjoyed learning all about earthquakes and how buildings are built to survive them. It was great fun making our own buildings and testing them!!
The boys and girls are so proud of their letter formation that they wanted everyone to see 👀. They circled the letter that they were most proud of.
STEM
Today we looked at our sense of taste. The children had to sort pictures and stick the ‘taste’ pictures on their giant tongues. They are getting excited about making their fruit kebabs where they will be using their knowledge of senses and repeat pattern. Watch this space!
Primary 3 welcome you to their blog page. We hope you enjoy our first post. Please leave us a comment!
This term Primary 3 have been developing their science and STEM skills through a range of activities linked to our topic ‘The Lighthouse Keeper’s Lunch.
The children weaved their own baskets and designed a pulley system just like in the story. have a look at our creations!
Mrs Ali posted a video of how we were able to design a pulley system to get the basket with yummy food across to Mr Grinling!

Great Work!
