Hello, we hope everyone had fun over the long weekend.
This week we went on the canal and learned about how to keep safe on water. It was really interesting and fun. We had turns at saving someone from drowning ( on the boat! ).
In science, we investigated how to make white from the colours of the rainbow. It also gave us an opportunity to make electrical circuits. We rainbow coloured our discs and then put them onto the motor. When they spun it made white. No one predicted that!
In maths we continued with fractions, improper and mixed numbers. We will continue this next week and it may involve biscuits!
There was lots of great discussion about our group novels and our discussion directors did very well leading the groups.
We finished our session of basketball with very fast, competitive games . Lots of baskets were scored and there was great passing as well.
Mrs Bain was pleased with our rhythm and percussion playing in music.
For IDL we looked at ordnance survey symbols and features of different Scottish landscapes. We will be painting modern beach scenes next week.
