Another busy week this week for P7F!

This week we have been focusing on the techniques writers use to describe a setting or character. We then put our understanding into practice as we wrote an opening few paragraphs for our creative story called “The Kelpies”. Some of the descriptive phrases we used were excellent and really demonstrated our understanding of the techniques discussed earlier in the week. We will be continuing to develop our skills next week and will be discussing imagery such as similes and metaphors.

 

In maths, we focused on our skills when subtracting and have been working with 3 or more digits. We have been using the written method so please challenge us at home by asking us to explain how to work out these calculations!

 

For other areas of the curriculum, we’ve been enjoying learning about World War 2. We now know why the war began and which countries were involved. Ask us about who is in the Allies and Axis- we’ve been working in pairs to research some of the political and military leaders and have begun making posters about them. We will post pictures next week so you can see them.

 

Well done for this week P7, I’m proud of your efforts. Keep it up!
