P7 pupils did a fantastic job in recognising the tempo, pace and instruments played in the Pharrell Williams song ‘Happy’. The kids loved the song saying that it made them feel like dancing and singing along with it. They were really happy indeed. Pupils particularly enjoyed finding the rhythm of the song by clapping, tapping their heads, stomping their feet or waving their arms. It really was a lot of fun, the children enjoyed getting into it. Smiles all round. We ended the first step by attempting to sing the song. The children did fantastically well and I have discovered some excellent singers in the room. As you can see from the videos, the children really enjoyed the lesson.
As part of the UICT task this term, P5DK have been learning how to use Scratch. They have learnt how to search for Egyptian images and import them into Scratch. In the next few weeks they will be learning how to get the characters to move and speak.
Primary 7 worked fantastically well this morning trying to crack another number puzzle. They competed well to find the pattern communicating effectively with their peers to find the correct answers. Great job all round. Have a go yourself at home.
Numbers can be fun!

During art this term P5DK made Canopic Jars using clay. They had to make a lid and a pot using drawings of real life Canopic Jars. After 2 weeks the children were able to paint the jars using a variety of paints. Here are some photos to show you what they did.
