It has been a fun-filled festive week in P7! Here’s what we’ve been up to…

Christmas Fayre Crafts

We worked in groups to follow a recipe to make some delicious dog biscuits to sell at the Fayre. Our art and design skills were also required to design eye-catching packaging to attract some pet- loving buyers. I’m sure you’ll agree that P7 have done an amazing job!

In addition, we were also making gift tags and decorations for sale too.

 

Numeracy
Our unit on multiples and factors came to an end with us learning about prime numbers and prime factors. We then completed an end of unit check-up to see how much we’ve learned.

Literacy

We have been demonstrating our reading skills by reading information texts linking to our current topic on World War 2. This week we read more about what it was like for children then, followed by answering a variety of questions.

We’ve also been enjoying listening to the story, ‘Friend or Foe’ by Michael Morpurgo.

I.D.L

Having learned about rationing during World War 2 and the need to ‘Make Do and Mend’, we tried our hand at making poms – poms. This proved to be a fun but challenging task as it was tricky to keep the wool in place when trimming around the circle.

We’re looking forward to the Fayre, the Pantomime and our party next week!
Have a lovely weekend when it arrives.
