It’s been a busy week in P5!

In literacy, we have been practicing our joined up handwriting, we have been focusing on setting the scene in our stories and we have been practicing some tricky words for our spelling. Katie feels that she has got better at setting the scene for her stories. Codie also enjoyed the story writing this week. Jax felt that he was able to focus more on his writing because he managed to write more than he has before.

In maths, we have been developing our rounding skills. Conlyn felt that he improved his rounding skills. Mary-Rose also feels she has improved because now she can remember the rounding rhyme. Kayleigh likes using number lines to help her with her rounding.

In other areas, we were learning about friendships and we worked in teams to design a poster of what a good friend would do and what their qualities are. We have also been learning about sketching with Mrs Wilson and are working on autumn picture using warm-toned colours. We have also been learning about France. Connie knows that France is split up into 13 different regions like Grand Est, Occitane, Il-de-France and Provence. Harper learned that in the Grand Est, they produce over 300 million bottles of champagne each year- wow! Codie researched and found out that 14.8 million people visited Disneyland Paris in 2017. Finley also really enjoyed being our 10 minute teacher this week which was great fun!

 

Next week, Callum wants to write even more for his story next week. Theo’s goal is to get on the recognition board. Tanisha is aiming to write 2 pages for her story next week.
