Today we learned about a controversial issue: “Should wolves be reintroduced into the Scottish Highlands?” We researched both sides of the argument and created our own pieces of persuasive writing on the subject. We also published our writing using the class iPads. What do you think about bringing wolves back to Scotland?
During Golden Time today, we used up the left over paint from the open morning to make these amazing Africa outlines using straws to blow the paint!
What do you think of our completed Tribal Masks? Aren’t they fantastic! We thought about our use of colour, shape and pattern when making our designs.
Today we created plans to make African Tribal inspired masks. We can’t wait for our parents and guardians to help us make our masks at the open event this Friday morning!
Today we took part in the RSPB’s Big Schools’ Birdwatch. We got our waterproofs and wellies on and headed out to the garden to sit and look and listen for the different species of birds that live in our area. Stay tuned for the results of our survey!
We were inspired by the work of African artist, Shake Makelele and created work using similar mediums. Do you like our traditional silhouette pictures?
As part of our Africa topic, we will be looking at ‘The Universal Declaration of Human Rights.’
This book ⬇ is going to help us understand what it is and what it means for us and other people.
Today during IDL time, we learned some words in Swahili. Swahili is an African language spoken by around 120 million people. We learned how to say;
Hello – Jambo
How are you? – Habari gani?
Today we learned where in the world Africa is. We completed a mapping task and familiarised ourselves with the names of the African countries.
P5 welcomed 200 brown trout eggs last week and we have been looking after them very carefully. We have been monitoring the temperature, adding ice to keep it cool and checking for eggs that haven’t survived.
P5 are so enthusiastic and we are looking forward to Wullie paying us another visit on Wednesday.
