P7/6 Rocks!

Good afternoon everyone.

It has been another fun packed week in P7/6.

Our Science topic this week was really rocking!  We learned all about the structure of the Earth and spent sometime drawing and labelling diagrams which show the inner core, outer core, mantle and crust.  From here we became geologists and learned about different types of rocks, igneous, sedimentary and metamorphic.  It was great to get a chance to touch and hold all these rock samples and not just use pictures. We were even then able to identify rocks from their colour and texture!  The rock and roll lifestyle of a P7/6!

In Maths we have continued working with decimal numbers and improved our ability to mentally add and subtract decimal numbers.  We also consolidated our knowledge of multiplying by 10, 100 and 1000.  This formed part of our Maths glass wall learning.

For our writing we completed our series of lessons on “Cool To Be Kind” and we completed diary entries from a refugee’s point of view.  We used emotional language to convey feelings and the finished result was some very powerful pieces.  These have formed a display in our classroom.

One thought on “P7/6 Rocks!”

  1. What a great post, lots of different learning this week, I noticed that you have started to build on your science topic wall and can identify the structure of the earth.
    I just love coming in each week to see how your class wall has changed to reflect what you are learning in maths- keep up th great work!
