@GorebridgePS @newbattlehigh Amazing work p4/5

P4/5 were looking at area. They were given a wooden square to work out its area and the area of each colour they used. As they are learning about Romans they looked at mosaics, created a design and worked out the area of each colour they would use. @Newbattlehigh

@GorebridgePS @mideduteam Wow you amaze me every day.

@GorebridgePS Wow determination, perseverance and have a go attitude. Loving hoe focussed and relaxed the children are.

Miss McQuet and Miss Mack's knitting and crochet club has been a big hit have a look at these pictures.

@GorebridgePS @NewbattleSci @mideduteam Well done

P4/5M mixed bicarbonate of soda and vinegar with water and washing up liquid to create a volcano eruption. We discovered that the gas made by the bicarbonate of soda and vinegar was carbon dioxide just like a volcano. @NewbattleSci @mideduteam

@GorebridgePS Proud school

After school club - knitting and crochet. Perseverance, determination and enjoyment. Miss Mack and Miss McQuet are soo proud of the dedication to learn a new skill.

@GorebridgePS @NewbattleSci Excellent exploration, team work and cooperation.

P4/5M were exploring the force caused by a Tsunami and the destruction it could cause today. They used scrunched paper, soil water and added a village using Lego. Then they tested the force. @NewbattleSci

@GorebridgePS Thank you for coming into school to support your child’s learning.

BOATS was successful today and P4/5m enjoyed having adults in class. It was great to see adults supporting children and each other with tricky activities. P4/5M have been learning angles and how to find them and use a protractor. @MidDigiLearn @mideduteam

@NWBattleDrama Well done Keira

Well done to Keira for winning 1L4’s Actor of the month for September! Super proud of all your hard work 🤩 #AimHigher

@GorebridgePS E I am soo impressed with your dedication to improve your learning by completing home learning tasks.

Wow what an excellent role model for a Gorebridge learner! Homework during breakfast, reading for 20 minutes. Excellent dedication to your learning journey E.

@GorebridgePS Wow J you have certainly shown your knowledge and understanding of the earths structure.

This week we cut into our mini earths to remind ourselves of the earths structur. Excellent recording by JM to show what she has learned.

@GorebridgePS Miss Mack had to admit she wasn’t an expert on all things volcanoes and that she couldn’t answer the question - How come the pot they take lava samples in doesn’t melt if a hot furnace can melt metal. Ask google was my reply!

Yesterday P4/5 were learning about earthquakes and why they happen. They then began making their own earthquake during art using clay.

@GorebridgePS Miss Mack was amazed at the teamwork and problem solving during this activity.

Today P4/5 were learning about tectonic plates and what causes an earthquake. They had a challenge to work in groups to build a tower that would be earthquake proof. After testing they then went back to change their design. What fantastic learning and great teamwork.

@GorebridgePS Miss Mack is hoping the cross sections work when we cut them. Great work P4/5.

P4/5 have started their Natural disasters topic. They made the earth using the structur, inner core, outer core, mantle and crust. Some children even added volcanoes and Antarctica.

@GorebridgePS Wow great teamwork, communication and enthusiasm to complete the task. I loved how LC was able to say what he had been learning.

@GorebridgePS Wow P4/5 M we have got this you know what you need to do to be the best you can be.

Today we looked at the rights of the child in the school setting and what is important. We then looked at the SHANARRI wheel and how by having our rights met we can be confident individuals, successful learners, effective contributors and responsible citizens.

I’ve completed the seesaw certified educator course @Seesaw
