Fun Friday!
P5/6 had great fun participating in the activities set by the P7 pupils today!
New Skills
It’s an exciting time in P5/6 as we are learning lots of new skills. We are becoming Chess masters as we continue to learn all of the pieces on the board and follow the rules of the game. We are getting very good at it and our problem solving skills are improving each week. This week we taught the P6/7 class how to play, they found it tricky at first but we helped them with their moves and captures.
This week we also started a block of rugby. We played lots of different games to get us familiar with some of the rules. We will be taking part in rugby for the next three weeks on a Wednesday.
We are well into our novel study, Charlotte’s Web and we are enjoying our new reading trios. We are developing out comprehension through lots of different activities.
