It’s Friday again, what a quick week. Only one more week to go till the holidays!

P6 have been very busy again and are looking forward to a well earned rest. Here’s a summary of what we’ve been doing.

On Monday, for literacy we continued to develop our listening and talking skills by working with a partner to prepare a short speech. For spelling, we focused on Fair Trade vocabulary. In Numeracy we applied our knowledge and understanding of decimals and completed an assessment. In the afternoon we rehearsed two songs from the Lion King in preparation for the Dance Fest.

On Tuesday for maths we put our problem solving strategies to the test and for literacy we wrote eye – witness accounts to practise our chronological report writing. After lunch we had another run through of our Lion King songs then headed off to the Palace Theatre to take part in this year’s Dance Fest.

We had our second last skiing and tubing session on Wednesday and in the afternoon we focused on Time work in maths then enjoyed our outdoor WOW activities.

On Thursday we had a fantastic time at the Scottish Opera venue in Glasgow to perform our Lion King showcase. Firstly, we were given a tour of the building then had a quick rehearsal and sound check. After lunch we went on stage. Everyone did amazingly well. We enjoyed watching the other schools perform their Disney musical extracts.

Today as part of Fair Trade and Food Fortnight we learned all about coffee. We found out where coffee beans are grown, how to make a cup of coffee and we even got to paint a landscape with coffee!

Next week we’re going to be learning all about herbs and spices!

Enjoy your weekend.
