Primary 7b have been working on their problem solving skills in maths. In pairs they designed a fireworks display, where they had to stay within a budget. They worked co-operatively to come up with the best money saving plan, although some were keen to spend it all!!
Primary 7b have been learning about Remembrance Day. They understand why we have Remembrance Day and the history of it.
They also know that November is the month of Remembrance in the church and the children have all been learning the Eternal Rest prayer. We are saying this everyday throughout the month of November and have also also chosen special people to pray for, who are no longer with us. We made poppies to symbolise this and create a special place in our classroom.
Primary 7b were getting into the Halloween mood this afternoon by making some black cats! Here are some photos of their new friends!
Primary 7 are learning to add posts to the blog.
Primary 7b have started weight in their measurement topic in maths. Yesterday we revised what the children already knew about weight and converted between grams and kilograms. Today they were measuring various items in the classroom, including themselves!!
Primary 7b have continued with their work on length. Today they completed a maths carousel with different length activities. It was a bit of revision which they were able to complete co-operatively. 
Last week Primary 7 travelled to Holyrood in Edinburgh to visit the Scottish Parliament. They had a guided tour around parliament and added to their knowledge they already had about the topic. After the tour, Jamie Hepburn stopped by briefly to talk to the children and answer some questions. It was an informative trip and the children all had a great day.
Primary 7b continued their measuring today in class. They chose objects to measure in school and again used rulers, measuring tape and trundle wheels. They also started converting between millimetres, centimetres and metres.
Primary 7b are currently learning about measuring length in maths. Today we chose different areas out with our classroom to measure. We measured in mm, cm and m. We used rulers, measuring tapes, mature sticks and trundle wheels. Here are some photos of us in action.
As part of our ‘Owl who was Afraid of the Dark’ topic, we decided to paint landscapes of the night sky. We looked at Vincent Van Gogh’s ‘Starry Night’ for inspiration, and learned a little bit about the artist while we were at it. Have a look and see how we got on.
