Maths

After the long weekend, P5-6-7 focused on developing their knowledge of ‘time.’  Some have improved their understanding of 12hr and 24hr time and finding time durations.  Whilst all of the children have spent time putting their knowledge to practical use, such as; developing life-long skills in using on-line route planners to help plan trips and timing practical activities.  Look out for a Marvellous Me post over the next week which will tell you more about the areas in ‘time’ that your child has progressed with.

 

 

French

This term, we have spent time learning how to talk about the weather.  Now that we are more familiar with how to say different types of weather, we will apply this knowledge in planning conversations about the topic.

 

Drama

In Drama, we have been becoming more familiar with a wide range of movements, expressions and voice techniques. Over the past few weeks, we have based our lessons around our WW2 topic – in particular, through the eyes of evacuees, their families and the host families in the countryside.  We have learned how to use different techniques to create and portray these roles.

 

Health and Wellbeing

Throughout this year, we have focused our lessons on the SHANARRI indicators (see wheel below).  This week, we put our knowledge into practice and thought about our own individual wellbeing at school, at home and in the wider community – completing a ‘Wellbeing Web’ to give us a better understanding of our needs.  We also paired up with the P1-5 to help them with the same task and pass on our knowledge – a true test of our learning and one in which the P5-6-7s showed their responsible and caring natures towards others.
