The Tallest Class in Banton Primary
This week the pupils all finished their Automata. There are a few photos in the video before footage of the machines in action:
Today we presented to the parents & guests about our STEM (or STEAM) learning, including a section on the automata Project. The children did a brilliant job of writing scripts, creating presentations and talking to an audience.
More work with the Biggies & Bairns, painting one side of our mythical creatures, writing & recording text to go with them. Lots of inter-stage cooperation, creativity, leadership and fun.
We are making some progress using our Makerspace to work on out Cardboard Automata, here is a video from last week:
The Biggies did a great job working with the primary 1 & 2s in our ‘makerspace’ this week. Last week they helped the wee one design a mythical creature and this week we got to tether to create cardboard versions. We shall makes these into 3D creatures in the next couple of weeks.
In maths we had a Scratch Challenge:
Josh did a great job, including working out how to use messaging to stop sprites deleting other sprites drawings:
We saw a different sort of shape with this triangle in the playground:
We did a whole lot of World Book Day related tasks yesterday. Including mashing up book titles to make our own handwriting blurbs for them and some blackout poetry.
We have been looking at some art by Joan Miró and are planning to make some Miró inspired sculpture. We started by trying some pictures inspired by Miró’s work.
