Animal and Wind Pollination

Primary 7 have been learning about plants for their context for learning this term. They have been learning about the different parts of the plants, how the process of pollination works and different ways in which pollination can be carried out, by animals and by wind.

They have been looking at plants in their garden and identifying how they would have been pollinated using their learning to help them.

 

Arron Identified that the pine tree is wind pollinated and the pink and white flowers are insect pollinated. Well done Arron!

Viking Gods

Our topic this term is the Vikings, Primary 4 watched ‘The Viking Sagas’ on BBC and then created their own Viking God inspired by the sagas they watched and their research on a Viking God.

British Sign Language

Primary 5 have been practising British Sign Language while we have been home learning. Last week we revised the alphabet and greetings. This week we are practising animal signs through videos and games. We are also learning to sign songs with Noel on BSL. This is a continuation of the learning we have done in class.
