This week, Primary 4 started their new Weather-themed topic!
We are learning about how the weather affects our daily lives, how to measure/record weather and how to create our very own weather reports!
We looked at the different tools that make up a weather station – a barometer (pressure), a thermometer (temperature), a wind vane (wind direction), an anemometer (wind speed) and a rain gauge (precipitation). We made wind vanes on Wednesday afternoon and tested them in the playground. Using the orchard as North, we found that the wind was blowing in a Southwesterly direction. We were also able to apply our recent learning about compass points.
Have a look at how we got on!
Until next time…

Well it has been a very quick week this week but we’ve managed to pack quite a lot of learning in.
Mia – we have been learning about using greater than, less than and is equal to symbols in Maths.
Rosa – we have been learning how to use doubles to work out near double sums.
Ellie G – in PE we have been learning how to jump. We learned to do a standing jump, the high jump and the hurdles.
Oskars – in spelling we have been learning magic ‘e’ words and contractions.
We hope you all have a lovely weekend and get some good weather.

We have started our new topic which is weather. Even though it is Spring last week we saw lots of different types of weather! There was sunshine (not much!), snow showers, hailstones and heavy rain! Mrs Campbell is so good she can even organise the weather! Oh if that could be true!
‘ I enjoyed giving my weather forecast to the class. I used weather symbols to show the different types of weather, I used numbers to show the temperature and I had to use the correct vocabulary.’ Owen
We looked at the work of Claude Monet. We discussed how the painting made us feel. Then we produced our own painting of the Sunrise.
‘ I learned how to mix different colours to create my sunrise painting’ Jay
‘ I learned how to use different colours’ Ryan
‘I reminded everyone how to make colours from primary colours’ Kelly
This week, Primary 4 wrapped up their Food & Nutrition topic with the Vegetarian Food Challenge!
Three pairs had made it to the final with their meal designs (see last blog post). Miss McLaughlin decided that the most balanced meal came from Kristina and Kamila. Well done girls!
On Tuesday afternoon, we put design into action and made our own vegetarian meals. Below are some of the photos.
Another topic successfully completed!
Until next time…
