We have had a really busy few weeks making wands out of plaster of paris, writing our Hogwarts letters, painting potion rooms, and giving magical lessons as pupils.
Here are just a few of our highlights including getting a visit from some real owls!

P5/6 New Topic
Our Topic this term is the novel, “Harry Potter and The Philosopher’s Stone.”
We have been busy in groups drawing and painting the main items and characters from the novel, to bring our topic to life.
We made wands from chopsticks, plasticine, pipe cleaners , beads and plaster of paris today, we can’t wait till they dry and we can paint them.
We will work on our MS Access Harry Potter themed Database this week too.
We are really enjoying this topic.
Drama In P5/6
As part of our, ” Wonders Of The World,” topic we were looking at the Romans and at The Colosseum.
We held a drama session where the pupils recreated a short scene and then froze the action for the rest of the class to guess what it was.
An unhappy Emperor watching the games.
The poor slave was beaten by the Roman Gladiator.
The lion is getting beaten by the brave Gladiator.Music In P5/6
We have been enjoying our Music lessons this term. Miss White is teaching us some fantastic rounds and we have been learning to play a variety of percussion instruments to various beats in order to learn the written form of musical notes.
Leaning the beat in the air first.
Playing using two beaters at a time.
Learning a complex clapping game , we are concentrating hard just about to take part.
Design in P5/6
Last week we prepared for an activity during STEM week by creating a design which had to be based roughly on any Wonder Of The World, and be 15cms long, 15cms high and 15cms wide.
We only had 15 minutes to design and achieve this in preparation for a task this week.
Take a look at our work.
