Miss Wallace and P7 invite you to share in their learning.
Today primary 7 had the chance to discuss their experiences about their two day visit to high school. All children loved the experiences and had children from their school in all classes!
We then took part in a Drama lesson and the class was split up into 5 groups. Each group took a different scenario for starting high school and performed to the rest of the class.
Today the whole school took part in an Assault course to raise money for the school. This was really tricky and it involved using all of our muscles!
We really enjoyed this experience and some of us even managed to climb over the tallest part of the wall with no help!
Just look at how much fun we had!
In maths this week we Focused on speed,distance and time. We had to work out the speed of cars and see what ones were the fastest.
For our topic Hollywood we watched the trailer for brave and described the hero,setting and characters. Then we started to create voice overs for the trailer.
During Literacy each reading group was introduced to their new reading novels. My group has started a novel called the Eleventh Orphan.

This week in primary 7 we have been doing lots of time in maths. We did time problems involving flight departure and arrival times and looked at different time zones in the World.We then discussed the place we have been to and the countries we would like to visit.
Our topic is hollywood movies and we have been looking at the way films are produced and how actors and actresses are chosen. We also created posters of our favourite movies to attract a viewer to then go and watch the film. For example I created a poster about Shrek and why people should watch it.

On Wednesday we had the opportunity to make the most of the lovely weather and we took part in PE outside.
We focused on the skills of: dribbling, passing and scoring.
We worked in teams to learn about control and worked individually to win points against each other!
On Wednesday half of the primary 7s got a chance to go over to Chryston high school to take part in some cooking at the home economics department. The rest of the primary 7s are going in two weeks time.
We really enjoyed going over to the high school and we learned lots of new skills and how we can help to make meals at home.
We created Rainbow Pizza pitta bread. To make this you must:
BON APPETIT!!

We are now coming to the end of our topic but so far we have done a lot. We have made our sad soldier art. In the sad soldier art we basically drew our sad soldier then got different shades of green tissue paper along with some brown and covered the background of the soldier with it. it looks really cool. We then made our propaganda posters which were actually loads of fun to make because we got to do little slogans like fight for your county or fight for freedom join now, stuff like that. Next we did our blitz pictures and to do this we used black paper, paint or crayon. This one looked really cool and stood out great. We learned lots of facts as well and the World War Two topic has been great to do.

Primary 7 have been working with the primary 2s to take part in paired reading. This has been a good experience for us and we have completely enjoyed it. We have listened to the primary 2s reading and have created games and activities for the children to take part in.
Codi- We read the book first and then we started to look at the words and take part in activities.
Jack- I used play dough with my reading partner to make her spelling words.
Gregor- I work with Alfie and he enjoys all the tasks I do with him.
Hannah- Charlotte is a very nice reader we have been doing two parts sentences wither her common words.
Bethany w- we done some fun spelling and reading
Orla- we used the playdogh to do our spelling
We make tasks up for them to do we try and find what words they find tricky and help them find a way to work it out
Over all I think we all really enjoy working with the p2 and are all hoping to do this for as long as we can.

Primary 7 love going over to the high school on a Monday morning to take part in PE. We have been learning skills in badminton and tennis. This involves us splitting into two groups to work on the sports.
