Our author of the week book will be kept in the class library for pupils to read.

Each week Miss MacFarlane will photocopy children’s writing to be published in the book.

This will help to celebrate the children’s hard work and model good examples of writing for their peers to look at.

We have been talking about the United Nations Convention on the Rights of the Child.

We thought about how the articles related to our school life.

Our class charter shows the articles we found most relatable to school.

We had a vote to decide what theme to make our display and the winner was Emoji!

Miss MacFarlane made the phone message using the articles we chose and we all made an emoji for the display.

We have since noticed that lots of the rights relate to the SHANARRI health and wellbeing indicators we have been learning about in HWB.

Primary 4 can you remember what any of those letters stand for and share examples with your parents?

We watched P5/6’s Eco Code video from last year to remind us about it.

We discussed the key themes:

Transport

Waste

Water

Health and Wellbeing

Biodiversity

Litter

Energy

Sustainability

Then we worked in pairs to write an acrostic poem including the themes.

Finally we worked collaboratively to make our final poem from all the pairs’ ideas.

We have been discussing the Mill O’Forest HEART values:

Honesty

Equality

A Caring Attitude

Respect

Trust

We had lots of ideas about how to demonstrate the HEART values at school.

Each person chose one example to draw in a heart for our class display and the finished product looks great.

Well done, Primary 4 🙂
