I enjoyed learning the properties of 3D shapes – Lucas Galloway

Today I leaned about 3D shapes and found a new shape called a hexangonal prism. – Jack Smith

I learned that 3D shapes have different properties and now I can state the properties of most 3D shapes – Emma Kinninmont

Today I learned that a cube and a cuboid have the same properties but have different faces.  A cube has 6 square faces but a cuboid has 2 square faces and 4 rectangular faces, – Jody McKay

Today I learned that there are different types of pyramids.  There is a square based pyramid and a triangular based pyramid. – Ellie Ness

Volcano Eruptions

Primary Five have been using their volcano to create an eruption.

We mixed together vinegar, bicarbonate soda, liquid soap and water to create the eruption. – Faith Arbuthnot

We used chicken wire, a shoe box and a kitchen roll tube to make the structure of the volcano. – Maya Ali

We used strips of newspaper mixed with watered down PVA glue to create the shape of the volcano. – Sam Gilgis

It was great fun but very messy! – Holly McTaggart

I really enjoyed making the volcano with the paper and glue. – Dominic Stirling
