On Monday Morning, Hafsa presented a powerpoint to the rest of the class about hunger.  We learned that women are more hungry than men because they don’t go out to work therefore they don’t earn money so can’t buy food. – Laiba.

We used a tape measure to measure each other’s height then we drew a line graph on paper using this information.  We converted centimetres into feet and inches.  Then, we used the Numbers App on the iPad to make a line graph of this information. – Maha  #MATHS  #DIGITALMATHS

  

We read Chapter 5 of Harry Potter which is called Diagon Alley.  We discussed setting description and, for homework, Miss McCue asked us to use adjectives to describe a setting we know. – Zarah and Hussain.

 

 

 

 

 

 

 

 

 

On Tuesday, some of us went to The Royal Conservatoire of Scotland to check out what type of facilities they have and find out what shows they are putting on.  The next show they are putting on is The Jungle Book.  We took part in a workshop and we made costumes then dressed up to show what art is like in Space. The lady working there said it is the best place to study arts in the UK. – Maidah  #ARTS

 

For PE on Wednesday, we took part in football drills to improve our passes and we learned how to dribble the ball. – Mujtaba.

 

 

 

 

 

 

 

 

Manahil presented a powerpoint to the class about young carers.  This was really interesting because a lot of the class had never heard of a young carer before so we learned new things. – Dilya.

 

 

For our Debate League, we debated on gender following on from Primary 7’s amazing assembly on Thursday.  We debated on why women should be in the army or not and also debated the pay gap between males and females.  We were either on the proposition side or the opposition side.  When we had a point to reply to someone, we said ‘point of information’ which would allow us to say our argument. – Eshaal.  #GENDEREQUALITY
