It’s Friday again. Primary 6 have been working very hard on a wide range of activities.

On Tuesday,  we welcomed Mrs MacLeod to our class. She will we working with us for the next few weeks and helping us with our learning.

In Literacy, we enjoyed reading the next chapter of our class novel ‘The Demon Headmaster’. We found out that the main characters go to a very unusual school. For writing we looked at the features of chronological reports and our next step is to plan and write our own report in time order. We also learned about prepositions and how useful they are in our writing.

In Numeracy we have continued to work on fractions. This week we learned how to find fractions of amounts using division and multiplication. We also had a go at creating and solving our own fractions problems.

We enjoyed our art task this week which involved using art straws to create a collage picture of a Chinese temple to tie in with Chinese New year.

On Wednesday we had a very exciting time at Newmilns ski slope for our first skiing lesson. It was quite tricky but we had great fun.

For our Disney rehearsal, we learned a new song and polished up on our lines and dance moves.

Next week we will be continuing with our Africa topic with the focus on animal camouflage.

Have a great weekend everyone.
