Burke, Hare and Dr Knox

Yesterday, Primary 5J learnt about Burke and Hare and their role in the history of Edinburgh. We looked at a variety of texts to learn about them and discovered they were murderers who sold the cadavers they had to make money. We then created questions to ask them and role played their responses.

Measuring Angles

Today we went outside to measure the height of trees using angles. By looking at the tree through our legs we were able to create a 45 degree angle so when we could see the whole tree through our legs the distance from the tree was also its height.

We had lots of fun waddling forwards and giggling when we fell over.
