On Friday morning we went to New Lanark. We were to be at school at about 8 o’clock and to get on the bus at half 8. I didn’t know that so I was late. When we got there I was pretty excited. It was very big.

On Friday the 13th of September we went to Caelaverock castle. We went with the whole school. We were split into groups. We had to do six or eight tasks to find out about the castle. The castle was extremely old. I was really scared to go up to the highest point you can go at the castle. There was lots of bird nests to. We had to walk all around the castle to find out lots of facts for our tasks. There was a shed of things so we had to look at that. It was interesting. My favourite bit of the trip was we put the helmet and the thing that goes under it. We went to nine in till twelve. The week before that we went to Elissland farm and that was  really fun to.

On Wednesday we came back to school. We had Miss Dale. The fist thing we did was a list of are holidays. One of are class mates rolled a dice and that told us how many sentences we would do in a section. We also had to make a diorama of one of  the places we visited after that we played some games before lunch. When we came back from lunch we finished off are lists and diorama we also did some portraits of your partner. then we played more games.

On Thursday Miss Pattie taught us. We started to learn more about each other with postet notes.  Miss Pattie picked a postet  note out of a box and she red it out and  who ever she thought it was she stick it on us. After that we done some graffiti work. We made some graffiti box names that was really fun. After lunch we did some hand prints for a tree about friend ship. We also played some games. 

On Friday which is today we have Miss Pattie we had Miss Jardine for lunch. We did a reading survey. We did some scenarios and drama.      

Today we were making burgers. We made different types of burgers like: veg burgers they were very soggy, beef burgers they look very pink and a turkey burger they smelt delicious. My favorite was the turkey burger because it smelt so good. The burgers had a weird techier. Making the burgers was really fun. I was working with one of my best friend. It was really hard to make the veg burgers. Miss Dale was showing the p.5s how to make the burgers.

On Friday we had Environment day. There was five stations for environment day. We had Miss McIntyre we were making things out of plastic. I made plastic braslites they were quite cool. I also made a pink fox tub. The pink fox tub was made of a plastic cup. Miss Stapelton got some plastic from the beach some of them smelt horrible like the fish eggs. At the end we did a true and false game it was fun. Miss Brokie-Donald was fun. There was a pile of rubbish and you had to sort the rubbish in piles. Miss Jardine was doing food miles we had to pick a pizza and find where the food came from. Miss Dale was doing a time line. We were seeing how long things would disagrate. We made posters of what we would look like at the time the thing that you choose would disagrate.

Red nose day was on Friday the 15th of march 2019. On red nose day we where twins we where wearing sorry not sorry t-shirts and black leggings ALSO we had the same hair do witch was two pleats. On red nose day people bought lots of red noses they were £1.25. People where doing jokes some of them where absolutely terrible but some of the jokes where good. People liked doing , put the red nose on the clown. For break we had ice-cream for break and for lunch we had A BUFFET !!! It was tasty , we had sausage rolls , sandwiches and other yummy food !!! Are head teacher said for me to where some glasses I did not like that idea .I gave her a smirky look. At the end of the day we where watching the new Grinch movie , we watched half way through the movie I think… BUT RED NOSE DAY WAS FUUUUN!!

 

 

On big Thursday it was a bit different because the teachers did different things. Miss McIntyre does PE now . Miss Brockie-Donald does outdoor learning now. Miss Jardine does another subject in computer science it is photography. Miss Stapelton still does art. I like how we do different subjects on big Thursday. I love doing big Thursday. I wish we could do big Thursday every day.

On Monday we do Kiva. We learn about one thing at a time each lesson. Kiva is exciting and interesting because we learn new things about how bullying affects the victim and also the teachers learn new facts about bullying as well.

We have our own Kiva jotters and at the front there is rules we have written four Kiva lesson rules the rules are We treat everyone with respect ,   Together we will make the class a group that everyone enjoys being a part of ,We do not bully and we’ll fight hidden bullying. There is 10 lessons of Kiva but we have only done 4 lessons lately.
