We have each designed an island on a map but in a couple of weeks we will be making a 3D model of our islands. For this we are asking for your help. If you have any cardboard (roughly shoe box or cereal box size) we would really appreciate this as we will use this for the base of our model.

This week we are asking you to learn and put the finishing touches to your chosen scottish poem. Our class competition will be on Thursday. Here a few tips to remember –

  • Stand up tall and straight
  • Head up – don’t look at the floor
  • Use expression in your voice – it will make your poem sound so much more interesting.
  • Say the title of the poem and the poet before you start
  • Use actions and feel free to bring in props

Focus on your 3 and 4 times tables this week – write them out neatly in your jotter.

Remember to keep going with the games you  have been playing, Hit the Button and Coconut Multiples.

Best o’ luck laddies and lassies!
