Fantastic New Machar Bake Off last night! Huge thank you to all who took part-we were delighted with the entry and the incredible standard! Roll on Bake Off 2020 @MacharNew
Today we were writing letters to our partners in P1FB seeing if they would like to accompany us to the park for lunch as an end of term treat. @MacharNew
As part of our introduction to looking at the topic of "Weight" in maths, children were tasked to compare two classroom objects and predict which one is heavier. To test their predictions they learned how to make correct use of weighing scales. @MacharNew
Last week whilst the P4's were at swimming the P5's learned to make refreshing Orange and Mango smoothies. All children really enjoyed this activity and are learning to read recipes and follow instructions.@MacharNew
In maths we are learning about measurement. We took our learning outdoors to measure our shadows as well as calculating the area of the multi purpose court which is 1188 square metres. @MacharNew
Well done to these two stars who took part in the Primary Engineer Project! Their shoebox car model design won first place in a local authority wide competition! @MacharNew
In the last week of term to finish off our Rainforest focus we made our own “Rainforest fruit smoothies”. Children enjoyed preparing the ingredients, measuring the correct quantities and of course drinking them! @MacharNew
This afternoon we learned some basic racket skills in tennis with P1FB. We incorporated these skills into fun relay games with excellent teamwork being demonstrated. Well done everyone for working so well together! @MacharNew
