Archie regularly takes in photos and small pieces that he has crafted from wood, and we often marvel at how easy this comes to him. Today, he has brought in a chair that he has made, it is absolutely beautiful. It even has a detachable arm rest!

Miss Moar has got the class started on our topic for the term, which is space. The class have started creating planets with balloons and paper mâché, these will go on to form part of our wall display in class. It looks like lots of messy fun!
Angles
Craft and Design
This morning we were set a task…
We had to design, then craft a device that allowed all of our team members to draw at the same time, but nobody was allowed to touch the pen while it was drawing. We had string, one pen, tape, scissors and paper.
Here are some of our finished drawings, can you tell what they are!?
Active Maths
This morning we have been very active in our maths. We are just starting a block on addition and subtraction so have played games to revise our mental maths skills and refresh number bonds. By keeping these strong, we will be able to apply our learning to bigger sums.
In this game, each cone had a value (not that we knew that until the race was over!)We had to relay with our partners to collect cones, when the time was up, each colour of cone was given a value, we then had to add the totals of our cones up to see who won it’s the highest score.
P6/7 Class Charter
In our classroom, we have worked together to form our class charter. This is how we want our learning environment to be, and would like everyone that comes in to our class to follow this too.
Stop Motion Films
We have been planning and creating stop motion films to explain what an ecosystem is.
We have been using the environment around us to help make out films.
We are planning on showing our finished films to P4/5 soon.
