This week in primary 6\/7 we have continued learning all about plants, we planted flowers (a green for growth plant pot and a tickled pink plant pot). We are going to use these to investigate the effect fertiliser (liquid plant food) has on the tickled pink versus the green for growth that we’re \u00a0only putting water in.<\/p>\n

\"\"<\/a><\/p>\n

We have hypothesised that the tickled pink plant will grow bigger than the green for growth plant. \u00a0We also looked at seeds, we cut open a broad bean seed (it had to be soaked first) to see the embryo inside and the stored food bank that a seed has to make it grow. \u00a0Thinking time,<\/p>\n

“Does a seed need light to germinate? Why?”<\/strong><\/p>\n

We have ‘planted’ a broad been seed in a glass using damp paper towels as the soil so that we can track the seed germinating, we were excited today to see the TAP ROOT appear and growing!<\/p>\n

\"\"<\/a><\/p>\n

All of this got us discussing the Global Goal of the week “No Poverty”. \u00a0We talked about using charitable donations to help people grow their own food so that they can develop a sustainable way of providing food for themselves and their families.<\/p>\n

In maths we have been completing our work on learning about money. \u00a0Primary 7 have done credit cards\/debit cards. primary 6 were consolidating their understanding of how to apply the four maths processes using money values. \u00a0Some of us worked on a problem solving question,<\/p>\n

“How many \u00a31 coins in a stack would reach your own height?” <\/strong><\/p>\n

We have also continued using our Numbertalks mental strategies to share different methods of adding, subtracting and multiplying.<\/p>\n

In RE we have learned about the Disciples meeting with Jesus on the road to Emmaus, we have taken the quote “Did our hearts not burn within us” to inspire us in our daily life to follow Jesus.<\/p>\n

In PE we learned javelin techniques and we ran the track. \u00a0It has been lovely to be completing the school mile in the sunshine this week.<\/p>\n

I hope you have a great weekend from \u00a0primary 7\/6<\/p>\n
