Today we made potato salad with the potatoes that we grew with last year’s Primary 7.
We learned about how to chop safely and how to season our food properly.
In maths we have been playing “place value bowling” where we build numbers from the different parts.
Have a nice weekend, I know I will!
Apologies, but the blog has been broken last few days.
We have been very busy learning about place value in maths, researching non-fiction using the internet and creating our own graphic novel.
Homework week beginning 21.8.17
Maths
We are learning about place value. This includes reading, writing and ordering numbers by size.
For homework you have a worksheet. You can also write the following numbers in words
Or Make up a mystery sum quiz and try with someone at home.
Today in Writing, we started our graphic novels. We planned our characters – the detective and the villain and practiced the black and white drawings.
In PE we were SWEATING! by trying to beat our own fitness scores.
After lunch we were team building and one activity was to pick potatoes that last year’s P7 class planted. Hopefully on Friday we will make some potato salad.
Today we had another great day.
This morning we had PE and ICT with Mr Green and Mrs Thomson
In maths, we explored how we felt about maths and what our confidence level was starting primary 7.
We also played “mystery sum” – I have thought of a mystery sum and you need to work out what it is by going over clues about the answer.
1.The answer is under 100
2.The answer is odd
3.None of the digits in the answer are the same
4.All the digits in the answer are below 7
5.The answer is more than 10×3 =
6.None of the digits in the sum are the same
7.It’s a timestable sum
8.The answer is between 40 and 50
9.Its in the 9 times table.
Can you work out what my mystery sum was?
We have also been learning about the charity “Qhubeka” and how they protect children’s rights in Africa by giving them a bike.
We have also been evaluating our own performance working as a team on a specific task.
Next week our writing topic will be “graphic novels”
If you want to get ready for this topic, you can
Enjoy your weekend, I know I will.
We had a great first day back at school today!
We were exploring team work and how to be effective when working together on a task.
We identified that sharing, respect, listening to other’s opinions, and sometimes having a leader is the most effective way to complete a task.
We also learned about the charity Qhubeka which provides bikes for people in rural areas of Africa. If you want to know more about the charity, here is their website! There is also lots of info on youtube about them.

See you tomorrow!
Today we made ice cream without a freezer and in under ten minutes!
We used high high fat milk mixed with sugar, chocolate and vanilla.
We put this all into a bag and then inside another bag with ice and salt. We then moved this around for 8-10 minutes and the milk turned solid!
We still haven’t received many school show costumes. The dress rehearsal is on Friday so could everyone who hasn’t brought something in please do that ASAP.
As a reminder we are wearing denim on the bottom half and a checkered shirt in top half or a white t shirt if you don’t have a checkered shirt. For shoes if you have boots, wear them, if not any shoes will do (the darker the better).
Thank you
