Rannoch clan have brought their learning about climate change to a close this week.\u00a0 After learning about deforestation through our reading of The Lorax by Dr Seuss, some of us transformed ourselves into the Lorax to \u2018speak for the trees\u2019.\u00a0 We used our new-found skills in persuasive writing to write a persuasive piece on what we could do as a community to look after the trees.\u00a0 Fantastic pieces of writing were produced using a clear structure, sensing verbs and persuasive language.<\/p>\n

Some pupils have been learning about waste with Miss Redmond and they went for a walk around Calderwood to look at what bins were available for waste and recycling.\u00a0 Tjhey made a persuasive poster to persuade others to think more carefully about the waste we produce and how we dispose of it.<\/p>\n

Some pupils learnt about transport and how this can affect our environment, with Miss Reid.\u00a0 They completed a traffic survey of Calderwood and created air quality sensors for round the school.<\/p>\n

Our final task was to use art to persuade the Calderwood community to look after our planet.\u00a0 We discussed colour in art and thought about how we might use this in a picture showing our world in all its beauty and showing the world if we do not take action.\u00a0 I am sure you will agree that everyone produced very powerful pictures, showing great persuasive techniques through art.<\/p>\n

All in all, we have had a very interesting and informative look at climate change and have many ideas on what we can do to support our planet moving forward.<\/p>\n

Well done to all in Rannoch clan.\"\" \"\" \"\" \"\" \"\" \"\" \"\" \"\" \"\" \"\" \"\" \"\" \"\" \"\"<\/p>\n","protected":false},"excerpt":{"rendered":"
