Miss McKay

Travel Active 16/5/11

We were very lucky to have a visit from Claire and Kirsty from Travel Active on Monday. They taught us lots of ways in which we could be more active when we travel and the benefits this would have on our health.
We would like to say a big thank you to Claire and Kirsty because we are having lots of fun challenging our family and friends to be more active with us.

 We discussed how we travel to school everyday.

  We made a travel trail map

  Claire & Kirsty gave us a quiz at the end.

543+623=? 621+789=? 936+324=?
1024+589=? 546+2034=? 8009+4326=?

Now subtracting
465-53=? 5719-531=? 6213-73=?

Is this making you hit your computer screen why not take a break.

First day back at School

Well that is our first day back at School finished and I would like to say well done P4/5! Most of us have remembered our Class Promises and we have had a lovely day sharing holiday news and doing some Maths revision.

P4/5 like to play a game we call “On the Bus”

     

Your task this week is to explain this game to friends and family and leave a comment with an “On the Bus” Challenge for us.
Here is the first challenge to get us started (leave your answer in the comments box)

The bus starts it’s journey with 64 people and at the first stop 19 people get off, then at the second stop 8 people get on, at the third stop 26 get off and at the last stop  13 people get on. How many people are left on the bus?

Old Games V New Games

We have been thinking about board games as part of our learning about Dens Road’s Centenary. We have been discussing how games have moved on and been developed over the years.
We are going to start with good old Snakes and Ladders. Today we played it in groups the original way with the board game, at the table and also interactively on the Promeathean board.

Tomorrow we will debate:  Snakes and Ladders (old school) V Snakes and Ladders (new school)

Do Something Funny for Money!

Dens Road PS are having a talent show on Friday 18th March for Comic Relief. Each class can enter one act and I know that P4/5 is bursting at the seams with talent so I can’t wait to hear all your suggestions and ideas. Let’s make it as original and unique as possible!

Post any ideas or suggestions you have and we will discuss them in class.

THURSDAY 17TH MARCH

We held auditions for the talent show today and WOW what a talented class we have. We had signing, dancing, comedians and even a ventriloquist act! I wish I could put you all throught to the Red Nose Day Talent Show tomorrow because you were all fantastic but we only have time for one act per class. We had a class vote and it was very close but the winners were the very fabulous “Disco Divas” Well Done girls.

FRIDAY 18TH MARCH- RED NOSE DAY

Well done to all who took part in the “Dens Road’s Got Talent” Contest! You were all fantastic! I have to say that I am so very proud of “The Disco Divas” for putting on such a wonderful dance performance but also for the way you have organised and planned the whole act all by yourselves. As you all know Miss McKay can’t dance very well so it was down to you to choreograph the whole thing. Very well done girls, you definitely deserved your 3rd place award:)

Dens Road Centenary
