Primary 7 have been lucky to try out lots of new things this week. Keep reading for some examples!
Eve and Sally: We turned our classroom in to Wonka’s chocolate factory and got the change to try chocolate, fudge and marshmallows (make sure you check out our photos!!!). We did this to generate descriptive words relating to our senses so that we could write a poem. It was so fun!
Dallas: We found out our topic is going to be the United States of America, and we told Miss Ford what specific things we want to learn about.
Charlie: We did a maths carousel about place value where we wrote in the talking book, did some text book questions and played some place value games using some of the Heineman Active Maths games boards and resources.
Paris: Today we went swimming at James Young High School. It was so fun and amazing to see how confident we are in the water. We can’t wait to go back in 2 weeks time!
Joshua: In RE we researched information about our school saint, St. Ninian and then used this information to record group videos on the iPads. Next week we will be showing these to the class.
Freya: In PE we did some more hockey, rugby and team games. We played Russian Long Ball where we had to show focus on the skills of teamwork in creating effective tactics.
Avelon: Finally when we had written our senses poems, Mrs McCabe took photos of us making ridiculous faces!!! We can’t wait for you to see what we have on our wall display when you come to our Ninian’s Natter on Thursday evening (6-7:15pm).
Have a great weekend!
First of all, you tasted chocolate and did not invite me to help you?! We’ll be having words about this on Monday! I look forward to reading your poems too.
Delighted to hear you are researching St Ninian and using technology to create videos. It would be fantastic if you could share this with the younger classes this week in preparation for our Feast Day on Friday? Maybe we could also tweet some of your videos!
Great way of getting the kids excited about writing, can I suggest some chocolate tasting as homework next week!?!?!
