We explored magnets, magnetism, the poles of a magnet and how they are used every day and the force of attraction or how they can repel.

P4/5 – Spelling
We are refreshing our spelling activities and the class engaged so well in being text detectives this week. They searched their reading books for the phonemes they are learning this week. We had lots of discussion about strategies to help spell words too such as finding words hiding inside words and using syllables.
P4/5 RSPB bird survey
We observed the birds we could see from our playground and garden. We kept a tally of how many varieties we saw and found some feathers that we tried to identify.
P4/5 Maths
Exploring, learning and reinforcing times tables with Numicon.
p4/5 HWB and Outdoor learning
We harvested the carrots made in the garden and made them into a delicious carrot soup. We also made bird feeders with apples and sunflower seeds.
p4/5 Forces
Over the past few weeks we have been investigating forces on objects. We have created fair tests, changed variables and evaluated results. We have explored gravity, push, pull, height, friction and water resistance.
P4/5 Eco Code: Global goal 13 Climate Action
Primary 4/5 completed the co Schools environmental review. They identified what we are doing and what we could do. We identified one of the main issues is that the recycling bins for paper are not used correctly. The pupils’ designed posters to remind classes what should go in the paper bin.
Next they created a new Eco code for our school on the 4 key areas of Transport, Waste, Energy and Nature. The Eco leader from P7 came to select the most informative codes. These will now be displayed around the school. Well done p4/5!
P4/5 – RRS: Dignity, Equality and Equity
At the start of each school year, we create our class charter and refresh our knowledge of Right Respecting Schools. We have been reminding ourselves of the ABCDE of rights and what dignity, equality and equity means to us.
We explored what dignity, equality and equity mean and what this looks like at Fenwick Primary School and ECC.
P4/5 – Active Spelling
We have been learning to play Spelling Battleships to practise our spelling words. It’s a 2 in 1 game, practise grid referencing while practising spelling! It has been great fun and everyone is loving it!
P4/5 Science
As part of our forces topic we explored the forces on different objects and grouped them by force: squeeze, push, pull, twist and stretch. After we took a quiz to test our knowledge on forces.
