As part of our Victorians theme we have been looking at Victorian toys. We created our own jumping jacks. They were quite tricky to make because the string had to be tied in knots around other bits of string but once made they are great fun.
*We liked completing the skills superhero challenge this week.
* We enjoyed making suffragette posters using persuasive language as part of our civil rights IDL.
!We want to do cooking.
1st star We really enjoyed when the P7s taught us spelling and P.E. last week.
2nd star It was fun learning some facts about the history of Bathgate.
Wish We would like to learn more about the history of Bathgate.
P6/5 have been learning about different types of natural disaster. They were keen to find out more about volcanoes and completed many challenges finding out about where volcanoes are and researching the city of Pompeii after the eruption of Mount Vesuvius. Pupils worked in groups to create their own papier mache volcanoes. We then took them outside and simulated eruptions using coke and mentos. Everyone had a lot of fun but it was a bit sticky!
Both classes have just returned from an exciting adventure to Dynamic Earth. The children enjoyed a tour round the galleries which included looking at time travelling, the big bang, volcanic eruptions, the ice age and the rainforest. They took part in the Dinosaur Detective and Dinosaur Adventure workshops looking at dinosaur fossils. Thank you Dynamic Earth for a thoroughly enjoyable day.
The P3’s were able to enjoy a short walk to look at the Scottish Parliament building, Holyrood Palace and Arthurs’s Seat as well.

P4/3 visited Tesco recently. Tracy and Paul from Tesco took us on the Farm to Fork tour. We found out where food comes from and we even got to taste different kinds of food! At the end our visit we were given a goody bag with lots of games and information. Thank you Tesco!
