We have loved our time back at school! The children are really thriving being able to work alongside their peers again!

Literacy 
We are constructing a timeline for our novel, Wonder. We are considering the main events in the novel and what impact they had on the main Character, August.

The class have finished their ‘Perfect Planet’ reviews and have done their second drafts and are typing up a finished copy!

The children are designing information leaflets for an imaginary potential new family considering moving to Fettercairn! We looked at the school website for inspiration and added any additional information such as COVID-19 procedures.

Next term, our focus will be persuasive writing and debating.

Numeracy 
The children are still working on Measure. We are converting between different units of measure and using these to estimate and measure different objects. We will be moving on to measuring mass and capacity in the first few weeks of next term.

Other curricular areas –
PE – The P6-7’s hockey skills are really improving! We were learning to Indian Dribble this week. Next term we will be working up to playing small games of Hockey.

Health and Wellbeing – We are continuing to work on the Ethos in our classroom. We discussed gaining consent before entering someone else’s personal space and behaving appropriately in the playground.
