I hope you are all well 🙂  Here is today’s Board Number, please complete in the new maths jotter that is in your home learning pack.  Remember you do not have to do the extra, this is simply an extra challenge.  Once you have finished, please use a calculator to correct or ask someone at home to correct your work.  Remember, you can also use the inverse operation to correct your work too.

Primary 7 took part in their first Peer Educator workshop this week.  The Peer Educators are S2 pupils from St John’s and will work with the P7’s over the next few weeks covering a range of topics including transition to high school, respect and friendship and social media.

Primary 7 have been learning about the weather and the climate in different rainforests and worked in their cooperative groups to collate information about these features and then they used this information to create a script for a weather forecast.  Well done to everyone for participating and encouraging each other with positive feedback.

This term, Primary 7 are developing their knowledge and understanding of informative writing and last week worked in their cooperative groups to identify the structure and features of a variety of information texts.
