Happy Monday everyone,

Primary 6 have been busy over the past two weeks on a range of lessons and activities.

In Numeracy & Maths, the focus has been on decimals. We have been doing lots of learning with Mrs MacLeod finding out the link between decimals and fractions, using number lines and recording place value of tenths and hundredths.

In Literacy, the spelling focus was words with the phoneme ‘ear’ .  We have been continuing our class novel ‘The Demon Headmaster’. We are enjoying reading the chapters together and independently. For writing we have created diary extracts and character profiles.

We are thoroughly enjoying our skiing and tubing sessions on Wednesdays.  Everyone is becoming more confident and learning lots of new skills.

In art we were learning to use charcoal and chalk to create a picture to match our character description of the Demon Headmaster.  We have also been making animal masks as part of our Africa topic.

Our Lion King rehearsals are intensifying as we near the show date.  We have learned all the songs, lines and dances are now fine-tuning our performances. We are very excited today as we are heading to the Community Centre to familiarise ourselves with being on stage and have a run through. We will all be playing to the best of our ability.
