This week some of the Primary 7 class went up to St. Margaret’s for a science lesson. The lesson included learning how to draw scientific equipment and learning how to use the Bunsen burner safely. We also had to carry out an experiment to find the best insulating material. The rest of the class were helping the Primary 1’s while everyone else was out and they will go to St. Margaret’s nest week.
For writing this week we were re-writing the Fairy Tale of Little Red Riding Hood. We were doing Fractured Fairy Tales, where we changed some parts of the story as if we were writing a completely new one.
Visitors also came in during Maths to watch us do Number Talks. We have been focusing on fractions this week and calculating fractions of an amount use bar models.
