Four of the Primary 6 boys took part in a Knex challenge at Greenfaulds High School and Woodlands won! We are all very proud of them!
P5/6 have also been researching reasons for and against the moon landing in 1969. We are finding lots of points to back each side up. We canβt wait to show our presentations and debate about it!

Robert Thorpe Rocket Art π πΌ π¨
P5/6 have focused on the artist Robert Thorpe who uses his left over paint from other paintings to create abstract backgrounds for his rocket pictures. We created our own rockets by pencil drawing and designing with pencil, pen and crayon and created our abstract backgrounds using colour, patterns using paint and pastels. We used techniques of blending, shading and using paint brushstrokes, splashed and rollers.
Programming
Using Kodu Primary 5/6 have created platform worlds and used their knowledge of block programming toΒ design a code to makeΒ a character interact with the world.
P5/6 become fitness trainers πͺπ»ππΌπββοΈπββοΈπ€©
P5/6 have been learning about low, medium and high intensity training. We have focussed on HIIT training and even made up our own 15 minutes training programmes.
Times Tables π’βοΈ
P5/6 are focussing on multiplication in Maths and practising their tables, working out ways to help them remember and finding links between the tables. One way we have been practising is creating games for the table weβre finding tricky.
