Primary 7 have had a busy two weeks building blackhouses from balsa wood.

Many skills have been worked on including measuring, building, listening, cooperating and evaluating.  It’s been a very worthwhile task to fit in with our topic of “The Highland Clearances.”  The class evaluation reports are worth reading and will be on show (along with the Blackhouses) on our Learning Walk on March 14.

We look forward to seeing you there!

Now that Term 3 is truly underway, snow or not, I’ve copied the Overview for P7s work this term.

A paper copy will be handed out next week as well.

Many thanks
