This week in P7 in Maths we worked on calculating Profit and Loss and foreign exchange. We found out how to convert currencies. In writing we investigated figurative language like metaphors, similes and alliteration. We found out how the poet Charles Causley  used  figurative language effectively in the poem Timothy Winters. We also learned  about P.E.E. chains  and  how to use them to  write a critical essay on the poem. In our topic work we compared food in Japan with food in Scotland. We saw how Japanese women wear a kimono for the Japanese tea ceremony and created our own kimonos.  In Science we found out about chemical reactions and carried out a chemical reaction when we made our volcanoes explode. On Friday we also found out which parts we got in our school show Mary Poppins. We are very excited and can’t wait to start rehearsals.
