P3A Learning

We have had another busy week with our learning. We are continuing to work with giving exact amounts of money and giving change. We also keep extending our knowledge of times tables. As we have been learning about Farming, we decided to write a description of a tractor. We used our plan to inform our writing. In Art we used different media to create fluffy sheep.


Robotarium Visit 🤖

All of our P7’s and P6’s were very fortunate to get to visit The Robotarium at Heriot Watt University over the last few weeks. Some of us got to meet Ameca – the worlds most advanced human shaped robot – and asked it some hard hitting questions like ‘how big is the universe?’, ‘will robots take over the world?’ and most importantly for some ‘what is your favourite football team?’
We saw some incredible robots in action, got an amazing tour of the working labs and spoke to some inspiring engineers.
We finished the day with some competitive robot games – who knew robots could play football?!
A brilliant day out for everyone, and hopefully a few new budding engineers among us!

The Clan Merob! P6

Wow,how amazing is this! Emmy and Victoria have made up a game inspired by our class novel Light on Dumyat by Rennie McOwan. The name of their clan is a mix of their two surnames and the game involves all the skills you would need for an adventure in the Scottish hills,just like Gavin,Clare,Michael and Mot! I was so impressed with the game and the bow and arrows you constructed were great! Fantastic to see you having such enthusiasm for the story……we will have to wait and see if our predictions of how it may end are right!

Meteorites!

This week has been out of this world! Literally! We’ve been very fortunate to have some real meteorite samples loaned to us from the Royal Observatory in Edinburgh. What an amazing opportunity to hold, feel and look at some incredible rocks that have been travelling through space for millions (and even billions) of years.

Everyone was so engaged and respectful when handling these very precious materials. Hopefully you have heard all about it at home.
