Room 2 have really enjoyed learning about dinosaurs. To finish off our topic, we decided to create our own dinosaurs using paper plates. We cut out all the different parts, coloured them in, coloured in our plates and then glued the parts together. We think that they look great! For our writing this week, we also created our own dinosaurs. First, we had to imagine what they would look like. We then had to draw and colour them in, give them a name and decide what our dinosaurs would eat. We shared some of our dinosaur learning at assembly today …

We have had a really busy STEM week in room 7. We used ICT to make Andy Warhol inspired pictures, learning how to resize, adjust and copy a picture we’ve inserted into a document. We also set up a scientific experiment to identify what cress needs to go – each group chose a variable to change . We are looking forward to our results next week. Today wrote a letter to Mrs Calder about assemblies – and she’s asked us to help her plan next week! Mrs Norton thinks our persuasive language is brilliant, but wonders if we’ve maybe got …

We have had another busy week in Room 5! We continued our learning of double consonants and this week, we have been learning the phoneme ‘ll’. We know that this sound will always come after a short vowel sound.

We looked closely at the smell and texture of the husk (skin) and then we opened up the beans to find the chocolate nibs …

This week we have been learning lots of fun subjects. For the last three weeks on Tuesdays we’ve been learning hockey. The people from Uddingston Hockey taught us passing, v-drags and j-turns. It was really fun. This week we have  been learning how to multiply and divide with decimals. The final decimal question we ever do is going to be 12 by 1. It’s going to be hard. You should definitely come back next week because it is going to be amazing. Hira, Lewis D, Harrison

This week in Room 6, we were experimenting with chocolate. We talked about chocolate changing from a solid to a liquid when melting, and how the heat from the microwave helped this. We also learned that if we let the chocolate mixture cool down, then it will turn back to solid again and this is called a reversible change. We also enjoyed eating our chocolate fruit skewers after experimenting with the chocolate! For next weeks lesson, our prediction is that dark chocolate and white chocolate will melt the same as milk chocolate and we are excited to see if we …
