We have collated all of the information we have researched and taken notes on to inform our decisions about the Apollo 11 Moon Landing conspiracy. We have looked closely at sources of evidence, facts and opinions and decided which was the strongest piece of evidence and the weakest. We then had mini debates taking on a role and using the evidence and facts to support our given opinions.
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 can’t wait to show our presentations and debate about it!
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.
Using Kodu Primary 5/6 have created platform worlds and used their knowledge of block programming to design a code to make a character interact with the world.
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.
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 we’re finding tricky.
We have been creating our own space themed imaginative writing project. We have been taking our time creating drafts and then redrafting in to a book. We check in with each other to show our progress and get feedback.
We have also been pairing up with P2/3 for reading buddies, reading their group novels as well a book for enjoyment. We have been asking them questions for understanding and finding wow words.
For measure, we focussed on volume and made our own smoothies and measured the volume of smoothie.
Primary 5/6 are researching some Fairtrade facts. Looking at Fairtrade products and how giving farmers a fair deal helps them to grow their business and help the communities where they live.
Children are creating Powerpoints presentations using imagines and text – with some children trying to apply their newly learned programming skills to create an informative Scratch animation.
P5/6 made our own tomato sauce and experimented with the taste of garlic and onion and cooked pasta for a mid-day snack 👍🏼🤩🍅 🍝
We also have been researching about the moon and finding the answers to our many questions and teaching our peers. We showcased our knowledge and skills using PowerPoint to create fantastic presentations!
P5/6 have been learning all about Chinese New Year and the15 days of celebrations and the story of the Zodiac animals. Quiz us at home about the traditions! We then created bright and colourful posters for display to teach others about the celebrations and festivals surrounding this holiday 🇨🇳🧧🥳 🎆.
