We will compare our results from the start of the term to see if our fitness has improved.<\/p>\n<p>Nikki and Sally \u2013 We learned about Victory in Europe Day (VE Day). This was when the allies defeated the axis and Germany surrendered to end WW2 in Europe. We looked at persuasive writing and made an invitation to a VE Day street party and a propaganda poster which had a message to persuade a UK citizen to do a specific thing e.g. always carry a gas mask.<\/p>\n<p>&nbsp;<\/p>\n<p>Aidan and Dallas \u2013 We went to our committees today (Friday). This was fun because we get to work with people from other classes and choose what types of things we do.<\/p>\n<p>Alice and Aimee \u2013 We finished our WW2 topic with a carousel where we had a VE Day party!<\/p>\n<p><img decoding=\"async\" src=\"https:\/\/scontent-lhr3-1.xx.fbcdn.net\/v\/t34.0-12\/17505756_10154991225792752_1040516860_n.jpg?oh=9b015d7f5dadce3b1c06fce27fd049b3&amp;oe=58D7AAF5\" \/><\/p>\n<p>Charlie and Kaden \u2013 We did Scale Drawing in Maths where 1cm=1m etc. This is used in maps and in people\u2019s jobs like builders, architects etc.<\/p>\n<p>Matthew and Catherine \u2013 We learned about D-Day where the allies launched the final fightback to try to win WW2. On D-Day the allies landed planes and ships in France and thousands of troops were involved.<\/p>\n<p>Avelon and Lianne \u2013 We did Art with Mrs Thomson and we completed and mounted our Joan Eardley inspired art work. It looks great!<\/p>\n<p>Callum and Liam \u2013 On Monday we had an IDL homework showcase where we presented and shared the homework we have been doing over the last 3 weeks.

This is where we got a potato and made it unique by giving it an appearance and a life story. We linked this to our own lives by thinking about how we are all different and unique and we should help everyone as we all need different support in our lives.<\/p>\n<p><img decoding=\"async\" src=\"https:\/\/scontent-lhr3-1.xx.fbcdn.net\/v\/t34.0-12\/17410404_10154982339407752_448248784_n.jpg?oh=056a12f59fb5afc11669fc62a2e24975&amp;oe=58D76342\" \/><\/p>\n<p>Joshua and Rebecca \u2013 We are going to Dalguise for school camp on Monday, we are so excited!<\/p>\n<p>Have a great weekend and look out for school camp updates next week!<\/p>\n","protected":false},"excerpt":{"rendered":"<p>Another busy week in Primary 7 and a bit like the end of term for us as many of us are off to school camp next week!
