Primary 7 planned and carried out an Earthquake Science Experiment.’ The aim of the experiment was to create a structure that could survive the jelly earthquake. We used marshmallows, cocktail sticks and jelly. Below are some of the pictures of the outcome.
We are pleased to say, none of them collapsed!!!!!!!
Primary 7 are visiting Sky Academy tomorrow to take part in the ‘Skills Studio Journey.’ They will focus on Social Networking. The children will be given opportunities to develop skills such as, creativity, problem solving, communication, teamwork and self-management by producing their very own news report.
Our new IDL theme is natural disasters. We decided as a class we would start off with looking at the earth’s structure and the different layers of the earth. See below some of our plasticine models and some work we have been doing so far…
Primary 7 definitely know how to partyyyyyyyyyyyyyyyyy…the children had a brilliant time and so did the teachers!
It didn’t stay a secret for very long…But memories were created to last a lifetime 🙂
Primary 7 had a fantastic morning entertaining our grandparents, neighbours and friends. The tension for the game of BINGO was immense, but funnyyyyyyyyyyy! The cakes, tea and coffee went down a storm and there were some delighted ‘YOUNG’ people in the hall who won some fantastic hampers. ENJOY!!! A great morning all round and a big THANKS to everyone for coming along and helping to spread some Christmas cheer by singing along with us…
Lots of love at Christmas time from Miss McLaughlin, Mrs Reid and all the children in Primary 7.
Primary 7 are well under way preparing for their Christmas Enterprise tomorrow. We are having a ‘Christmas Coffee Morning’ for the elderly in the village. We will serve cakes, biscuits, tea and coffee. We will also have free raffles, (some fantastic hampers to be won) and a few games of BINGO… We can’t wait to spread Christmas Cheer!!! 🙂
Primary 7a and 7b visited the Odeon cinema today at Braehead. We went along as part of the ‘GLASGOW INTO FILM FESTIVAL.’ As our topic is Beyond Space; the film gave us an insight into what is happening to our beautiful planet and how the astronauts on board the International Space Station can see the impact of fossil fuels, deforestation etc around the world.
