This week in P7 we have been busy with our termly spelling and writing assessments. In our writing assessment the genre was imaginative so we decided to focus on the current topical issues of developing countries and refugees. Within this we wrote a diary entry from a child living in a developing country during the festive season. We thought about the rights which we have compared to theirs and also how different our lives are throughout the year but especially at Christmas. In doing this we were able to share our concern for those less fortunate who we must always remember to help in any way we can even with just a prayer.
In our topic work this week we learned about the structure of muscles and even did an experiment about our muscles and how they react with our brain. It was very fun as we got to blindfold our partner and give them a heavy cup filled with marbles and a slightly lighter one and asked them to identify which cup was heavier through the connection between their muscles and brain.
Finally, this week we also celebrated our achievements assembly. It is great to see how fantastic the children in our school are so well done to everyone and a special well done to the P1 and P2 children who performed their nativity for us earlier in the week. You did so well up on the stage in front of a great big audience!
Have a great weekend everyone!
