As part of our ‘Journey of the Osprey’ topic, Primary 6 researched the wingspan sizes of different birds. We then went outside and used our measuring and information handling skills to draw life-sized graphs of our results.

Primary 6 have been learning all about electricity . At Christmas,we used our knowledge of circuits and switches to create a model Rudolph with a nose that lights up.

Primary 6 have been reading ‘Sky Hawk’ by Gill Lewis.  Iona , one of the main characters, has a tree – house and this inspired us to make our own model tree-houses.

Primary 6 have been investigating air resistance . We have designed and made out own parachutes and we can’t wait to test them outside.

As part of their outdoor learning experiences, Primary 6 visited the Loch of the Lowes. They had a fantastic time learning all about the ospreys and migration  . They even created their own paper ospreys and tried to make them fly to Africa!
