This week in P3 we began looking at FairTrade. We have been keeping an eye out for items with the FairTrade logo on them and have been bringing these into school to help us with our assembly. We carried out some research to find out where FairTrade products come from, and put these on a map of the world.
On Wednesday we were very lucky to have Google Expeditions in our school. In the afternoon we went on our very own adventure to explore the 7 wonders of the world…. we saw the Taj Mahal, The Great Wall of China, Petra, Mexico (Chitzen – Itza), Rome and Rio de Janeiro in Brazil!! We also went under the sea and all the way out to space…. what an exciting adventure!!!
On Thursday we went on a bus to New Lanark with P2 and P2/3. It was a really long journey but when we got there we had lots of fun. We went to see the mill workers house and shop, and saw how people used to live 200 hundred years ago. After that we went to the classroom in Robert Owen’s school. As soon as we got in the classroom we were all given a school uniform to wear which was red and white, this was really fun! We had a teacher who was really strict and we learnt what it would have been like to go to school 200 hundred years ago. Finally we all got the opportunity to go on the Annie McLeod ride, it was a little bit scary but we still had fun!
We are really looking forward to practising for our assembly next week and wish you all a lovely weekend.
