Term 1 in P4

We’ve had a busy term settling into Primary 4. We learnt lots of new routines and done lots of hard work in Literacy, Numeracy and Health and Well Being.

We have chosen some photos to share…

Lilly, Hanna and Jack made a huge tower using magnetic blocks. They measured it and it was 1.6m tall.

Our Roman topic is well underway and pupils have enjoyed challenges where they have had to work together using everyone’s skills to design and construct models.

Jack made a shield and axe during choosing time. We think he looks great dressed in a Roman tunic.

Well Done Kevin and Aidan who made the sturdiest Roman chariot model.

Challenge to design and construct a Roman Chariot model with moving wheels.

We’ve been learning about the Roman Army and how the Empire expanded. We learnt some of their tactics when they went into battle.

We made Roman Catapults and tested them using cotton wool balls. We had to make changes to our models if the cotton wool didn’t move far.

We have been learning about Roman daily life and what they looked like and wore. We were shocked to learn that they cleaned their clothes in Urine!

We made our own versions of Roman Sandals. They had to be worn by our Roman lady (Zoe) and not fall apart.
