This week we have been learning the difference between man made disasters and natural disasters.  We found out that there are far more natural disasters happening in the world. We also learned that they both have a great impact on people and the landscape.

We discussed precautions that could be taken to make the damage caused by man made disasters less serious.

This week we have been learning how to use a PROTACTOR to draw angles less than 180 degrees.  We now know that when we start our angle from the left hand side of a line we measure using the outer arc and when we start our angle from the right hand side we measure using the inner arc. Hope that makes sense? By MORGAN ELLE HAY AND VHAIRI VERONICA BRADLEY

We didn’t blog the week of our Class Assembly! We just want to say thank you to everyone who came. We had lots of our parents and grandparents there. They  ate most of the quiche and cakes that we made with Mrs Laird. A thank you to everyone that gave us complements.  Our assembly was about the Scottish Wars of Independence. We shared our learning with the audience. On stage we wore our tartan and carried our swords and shields that we had designed and made in class.

Some of us played key characters from that time in history. Chloe was King Edward the First and she got booed! Aidan was King John Balliol and he got booed as well!! Rhiannon was William Wallace and he got a cheer! Jennifer was Robert the Bruce and he got a big cheer as well!  We stood up and recited a part of the Declaration of Arbroath.

We had super narrators: Heather, Cathryn, Vhairi and Megan. We also showed a great slideshow. At the end we sang Scots Wha Hae and Mrs Mclean said she was crying! by  BLAIR      ALICE PENMAN          PETER COLLINS
