This week in P7 we have been progressing through our history timeline with regards to our topic, Democracy. We have arrived in 1997, the year in which Scottish Devolution really began. In 1997 a referendum was held to determine the proposal of a Scottish Parliament and the ‘yes’ result meant that in 1999 the Scottish Parliament opened. Next week we will be looking at debating and holding our own class debate!
In maths we have started looking at decimals alongside fractions and percentages. All three topics link well together and it has been great to see the children making links between fractions, decimals and percentages. If you would like to do some revision of maths http://www.bbc.co.uk/bitesize/secondlevel/mathematics/ has some great online activities.
Finally, on Thursday we celebrated World Book Day. The children really enjoyed finding out about new books and characters which people had dressed up as for the day. In P7 we created front covers and book reviews which will be displayed on our Literacy wall so look out for these the next time you come to visit our classroom. All children also received a £1 book token which I hope they will make good use of!
Have a great weekend 🙂
