P5 Scottish inventors

We were learning to find information, make notes and use the notes to create a new text as well as learning about different Scottish inventors.

To show this we had to use the internet and books to research the inventors.  We made notes and organise them under suitable headings as well as using our notes to create posters in small groups.

We made colourful posters to show the rest of the class what we have learned – Amen

I enjoyed doing the research on the inventors – Amber

I knew that Scottish inventors made important things – Hayden

I liked learning about the inventions that the inventors made and seeing how they have changed – Jay

I ‘ve learned that the Scottish inventors made life easier for us – Samantha

We have all really enjoyed our research.

RSPB Visit

Primary 4 were very lucky to be the first class to welcome our visitors from the RSPB to our school.

We had lots of discussion about habitats and what we can do to help animals who want to live (or do live) in our school grounds.

We went on a walk around the school to look out for habitats which we have and we got to keep record of how many we have and how many points we scored.

Our school got 119 points and we were only missing 2 habitats! We were very proud of our score and really enjoyed being out to explore our school, even if it was very chilly!

Here are some photos of us all having fun:

P3 Are Magic!

P3 had great fun casting ‘magic spells’ this afternoon! We have been learning about magnetism in science and applied this learning to create ‘magic wands’ for our Hogwarts pupils. We used the power of magnetism to attract objects to our wands and even had wizarding duels. Have a look at us in action…

P6 Weekly Blog

We went to Broxburn Academy for a STEM day (Science Technology Engineering and Maths). Here are some of the activities we got a chance to take part in.

‘ We got to play with Oobleck. I f you put hard pressure on Oobleck on it, it becomes a solid. If you put light pressure on it, it becomes a liquid. ‘ Lauren

‘ We attached inflated balloons onto cd hovercrafts and took part in a race with them.’ Andrew

‘ We made fizz pop rockets. We put blu tak into the lid and added a white tablet. Then we added water. The first time we added cold water and we repeated it with hot water. We found out that hot water made the fizz pop rocket explode faster.’ Erin S
