P7 Week beginning the 29th January 2018

This week in P7 we have been busy.

  • In Literacy – we finished off our WW2 evacuee letters home to their parents.
  • In Maths – we found fractions of amounts, we simplified fractions and found equivalent fractions.
  • In Topic – we looked at human rights and how the ‘rights’ of the Jewish people were taken away during the Holocaust.
  • In Art – we created a Star of David badge that the Jews had to wear during WW2 and thought about how they would have felt. We also continued to work on our Anderson air raid shelters. We found an air raid shelter locally to help us create our own designs.
  • In RE – We looked at ‘Serving the greater good’ and how we could help SCIAF help people in Cambodia this year stop illegal fishing as part of the WEE box appeal.
