In nursery this week we have been learning about Scottish Culture.
We have been creating tartan patterns using cars, weaving gummed paper and with paint. We have learned lots of Scottish songs and listening to Scottish stories. The children have enjoyed our Scottish music and dancing. To finish our Burns celebration we enjoyed haggis, neeps and tatties for our Burns Supper.
In Primary 6 we have been so busy this week!
Here are some of our reflections.
Aimee has enjoyed learning about Queen Victoria. She especially liked the family tree activity and finding out that Queen Victoria had nine (!) children and Aimee was quite surprised by this!
In Maths Katie has been learning about angles. She is proud that she can identify different types, measure and even draw different angles. Katie found the Kandinsky angle art particularly interesting. Kyle totally agrees. He thought he wouldn’t be able to do it but he could!
Kai liked learning Mandarin this week because he got to make a Chinese dragon to celebrate the new year. He was very surprised to learn they do not have wings!
Billy would like to find more about the Queen Victoria’s family. Jaymie wants to investigate more about Victorian life especially the late Victorians. Ben wants to know more about the inventions created in Victorian times.
Ewan wants to try harder in Maths when using compassess as he found this really tricky this week. Steph B wants to work on keeping her decimal points in the right place. Emma M wants to getting better at creating calligrams.
One top fact from this week is…
Steven : Queen Victoria became queen aged only 18!
