Another quick week in Primary 7! Please read on to hear what we were up to.
Issei & Aimee – Mr McCurdy introduced athletics to PE lessons this week. We were running 60m and 800m races on the newly painted tracks on the field. We were learning to do the shot put and also the long jump. Some pupils were selected to compete in a competition in 4 weeks time so we will need to get practising for that.
Matthew – this week’s school assembly was all about equality which was interesting.
Charlie – in maths we started negative numbers and we were using a thermometer to help us understand these. We also learned that overdrafts have negative numbers.
Freya – we read a book called Piggybook and were discussing the story in detail about how the mum was expected to do all the housework and cooking without any help from her family and how she called her husband and sons pigs!
Aidan – continuing on with the Piggybook topic, we were learning to sketch a cute cartoon pig and trying to relate this to a part of the book.
Dallas – following on from the Piggybook, we were learning about gender stereotypes and discussing jobs which are stereotyped.
All – Today we had a maths lesson with a difference where the questions were multiple choice and shown on the smartboard. We answered using our own unique cards which we were given with A, B, C or D on these and the cards were scanned by the teacher which registered our answers on the system. We all liked using this!
Have a great long weekend!
