P5 and P6 Amazon/Smallpeice Trust STEM Day

Today our Primary 5 and 6 classes enjoyed a full day STEM session run by The Smallpeice Trust, kindly funded by Amazon. We completed lots of fun activities to give us a taster of what it would be like to be an engineer. We learned about Engineering as a career and the jobs available in the world of work.

We started our day with a code breaking task. We worked with our teams to use our prior knowledge of skip counting, multiplication and sequencing to crack the secret code.

Next, we learned all about the mechanics behind rockets. We were tasked with designing an economical robot and had to work out the cost of our product before building and testing it.

Throughout the day we worked towards completing our STEM certificates by earning stickers for speaking, staying positive, teamwork, problem solving, creativity, aiming high, leadership and listening.

After lunch, we learned about autonomous vehicles. We created maps and used iPads to program a Sphero. We had to meet a specific criteria and direct the robots to follow our instructions.

We also had a virtual visit from  Amazon where we learned about job opportunities and the role of engineers at Amazon.

We are so grateful for such a fantastic experience and we have loved learning through STEM challenges today.

 

Well done P5 and P6 🙂

Primary 3/2

This week in Primary 3/2 we have been finishing off our topic on Fairtrade. We have completed our learning journey to show all of the work we have done along the way.

On Wednesday we made our own banana and mango smoothies. We learned different cutting skills and the importance of food hygiene.  We created our  own recipes and enjoyed getting to taste them when they were ready.

Super work Primary 3/2 you have worked really hard throughout our Fairtrade topic!

Miss McGregor & Primary 3/2 🙂
