P6/7 Investigation continues!!!

This week we have bee continuing our investigation into the Kidnapping of the children from Green Manor. We have been working in our groups on tasks and solving training missions independantly before collaborating in our Investigation groups to solve the assignments sent to us by the Chief of Police. We look forward to sharing our learning at our Showcase assembly on Wednesday 8th March – where we will test your detective powers with mini assignments afterwards in class.

P7 also visited the Risk Factory in Edinburgh on Tuesday morning.

We have continued our development of aspects of story writing. Where we have looked at Characterisation.

In maths we have continued working on multiple operation problems involving decimals and rounding. One group has been exploring working with significant figures also.

In PE we have completed our block of Tennis and will be progressing onto a block of volleyball.
