We have been studying the Scottish parliament, not only trying to understand how democracy works and our rights and responsibilities as citizens, but as a building in neighbourhood. As part of this we looked at the artists and ideas who inspired the shapes and motifs of the design. One of these artists was Antoni Gaudi, and so in our art sessions with Mrs Brown we have been taking a closer look at his work, and creating our own designs inspired by him, just like the architect of the parliament building.

We have been thinking of different kinds of descriptive language we can use in our writing and identifying it in our poems.

We are proud to announce the publication of our new book “How to do Everything!”, which contains all the instructions anybody could ever need…

To get ready for the school Pallet Challenge we researched what plants would grow in Scotland at this time of year in a shady spot. Then after germinating the seeds in the classroom, we got them planted out in our pallet.

Hopefully our crops will be ready in time for the competition.

On Thursday Generation Science came to do a workshop with us called ‘Good Vibrations’. This was really fun and packed with experiments and learning about sound that involved everybody. We had already done some learning around this topic, so it was a great opportunity to refresh and apply our knowledge in a different context.
