Respect, Achieve, Include, Nurture
P5A worked very well in teams today when completing a RICH task – Sticky triangles!
They were shown three lolly sticks made into a triangle. The challenge – Can you continue this pattern of triangles and begin to predict how many sticks are used for each new ‘layer’?
They used lolly sticks to help find a solution and then discovered a pattern to predict how many triangles and how many sticks would be in future rows. Fabulous!🤩 Can you figure it out too?
Our P7 and P1 buddies spent some time together creating their own Christmas decorations out of card and cotton wool.
P5 showed great skills and team work when completing their STEM challenge – To build a free standing Christmas tree using only paper and tape.
Our finished trees were all very different 🤩🎄
We had a winner for the tallest tree and also the tree that looked most like a Christmas tree.
P5A enjoyed carrying out experiments to find out which substances dissolved in water-they were surprised by some! They were learning to use the words soluble, insoluble, solute, solvent, solution and concentration correctly.
Primary 6 had a wonderful time at their Christmas Party this week. They played lots of fun games, ate some party snacks and danced the Dashing White Sergeant!
P5 had a great party today which included lots of fun games, dancing and food! 🥳
After an afternoon of coding we finished off by exploring technology from the past. Today we looked at retro gaming on the Nintendo 64. Teamwork and pixelated graphics!
We are so lucky to have our poly tunnel and be able to grow crops all year round. The eco committee have been busy planting some herbs and seeds today. We loved the different smells the herbs created in our poly tunnel! We planted beetroot and lettuce seeds which we will hopefully be able to use in some salads next year.
Another very successful afternoon in P5A yesterday with our last 2 ‘companies’ creating their products for the Christmas Fayre!
Primary 5B have been creating their products which will be sold at the Christmas Fair
