Advertisers in the Making

 

 

 

As part of Food Focus Week and the Health and Wellbeing curriculum, Primary 4A began looking at different forms of advertising and the way in which this affects our decision making. 

After looking at a couple of adverts and our trip to the Sciennes kitchen, where we cooked up some delicious lentil soup, the class decided they would like to come up with some marketing of their own.

 

And this is how they did it.

 

 

"First we had to come up with a company name, soup name and a slogan.

Then by ourselves we thought of a logo, then shared them with our group and voted on the one we wanted.

Afterwards we thought of the advert, then wrote a script.

A few days later we started practising them (which we had to do a lot of).

When we were ready Miss McGrouther got her Ipad and started filming.

We ended up with 9 amazing adverts!"

Primary 4B test their skills as Egyptologists

On Monday 28th October 4B set off for their trip to the museum.





They had lots of fun recreating what it would have been like to
be mummified.

This is Ammut the Devourer.

 

After the children had listened to the presentation it was up to them to start solving some mysteries of their own. In teams they worked hard to identify what some of the artifacts would have been used for, and who they might have belonged to.

Don't you think Primary 4B would make excellent Egyptologists? We do!

P4As Trip to the Musuem

On Thursday 31st October P4A embarked on their trip to the Egyptian exhibition at the National Museum.

After a very interesting wander around the exhibition we were shown upstairs to the activity room

Rose was asked to help recreate the mummification process. She made a fabulous mummy!!

 Katya, Abi and Hamish volunteered to play the part of Ammut the Devourer. He has the head of a crocodile, the body of a lion and the bottom of a rhino!!

Ammut's job was to eat the heart of anybody who had sinned.

 

 

 In groups we became Egyptologists where we had to solve different clues to work out whose tomb we had found.

 

Some of these artifacts belonged to real-life Ancient Egyptians!

A special thank you to the mums and dads who were able to help us out.

 

 

A very fun time was had by all.

Well-spotted!

A very spotty day across Sciennes today, especially in Primary 4B, who were very spotty indeed!

As a class we raised £29.53 for Children in Need to put towards the school total.

Well done 4B on completing some super language work today, alongside all the excitement!
