We have had a very busy 2 weeks in primary 7 after our Easter break.
In Maths we have moved on to learning about measure. We are working on converting units of measure and measuring perimeter and area. Mrs Lauder also took us to the pond where we worked in pairs to calculate the height of trees. We used 3 different methods to do this. 1 was using a pencil to estimate; 1 was by measuring the height of out partner and making an estimation of how many of our partner would fit in the tree; and the other was by looking through our legs at a 45 degree angle. It was good fun learning outside and we would like to do it more often.
In writing we have been focusing on descriptive writing. We have written a factual description of the school. We also worked on writing a persuasive letter.
Our topic for this term will be the Global Goals. We have already looked at being responsible citizens by thinking about our consumption. We are working in groups on a different Global Goal each to create short movie to show our parents.
Primary 7 leadership team were involved in showing Education Scotland around our school on Tuesday. It was a busy day but everyone did a fantastic job.
It is set to be a very busy last term for primary 7. All transition information will be shared as soon as we know about in. The pupils are very excited for secondary school and for school camp.
I’m sure it’ll be a great last term!
