REVISION WEEK!

This week we will be revising the previously taught phonemes through games and activities. There will be no spelling homework, but pupils are encouraged to go over past spelling words and practice their common/tricky words.

 

 

We have been…

• bird watching with our P5 buddies. We were gathering data about the different species of Scottish birds that we see in our playground.
• learning about agriculture in Scotland. We looked at Scottish agriculture such as the livestocks we have, the fruit and vegetables we plant/eat and the crops we grow and use to make things like cereal. We have began to make informative posters to communicate what we have learned.
• creating our own dances in PE. Working together in groups to stick to the rhythm, work on our coordination and just be very creative and have fun!
• practising our times tables knowledge. We focused on our quick recall of our multiplication and also worked on our division times tables facts.
• writing detailed sentences that make effective use of VCOP (Vocabulary, Connectives, Openers, and Punctuation)
• taking part in a science experiment to see how sound travels through vibrations through the particles in different materials. We experimented to see whose clap could create the loudest sounds and also cause the most vibrations in the paper.
