This week in Primary 6…

We were set a secret mission by Jamie Bond to investigate how air resistance affects motion. This meant we carried out two experiments – one creating a spinner and one making parachutes. Kai really enjoyed making three different sized parachutes. Charlize liked making the spinners to test air resistance with Mrs Lough. Owen learned that the bigger  surface area an object has, the slower it will fall.

In Maths Steven found symmetry difficult to begin with but slowly has got the hang of it and can even create symmetrical patterns. Stephanie T enjoyed creating a pie chart from a survey about school uniform. Billy enjoyed measuring using an interactive game.

Ewan thoroughly enjoyed making the most of the sunshine and joining with P6/7 for an hour of rounders. I think everyone agrees with Ewan! Hopefully if the weather continues we can do this every week! Mrs M will NOT be wearing high heels next time however!
