Good Morning and a Happy New Year to you all,

During our first two weeks back we have been learning and practising multiplication facts from the 6, 8 and 9 times tables using different activities to help reinforce our knowledge.  We have created our own ‘Helping Hands’ resource to help us memorise the facts or help us if the question is a bit tricky.  Using this resource, we learned a great trick to help us learn the facts from the 9x table which was magical.

 

We created paper chains and used them in different activities which have also helped us to learn the facts.  Please ask us any questions from these tables and we will be able to tell you the answers.

In P.E. this week, we began to learn a bit about Badminton and spent time practising our aim by trying to land the shuttlecock into different hoops.  It’s not as easy as it looks!  😉

In ICT, we have been using the Paint app and have created some very colourful pictures which we learned how to save to the laptop then send via an e-mail or upload into MS Teams.  Our ICT skills are growing all the time.

Everyone has been given a copy of the Scots Verse poem, Street Talk, by J. K. Annand, we have started practising it in class and it is sounding great.

It’s been a busy couple of weeks in P4S.

Have a great weekend Everyone,

Miss Steedman
