P6 Happy Advent 1.12.23

Wow what a busy week in P6!

Literacy & English this week started with Picture Questions with Inference and HOTS questions.  Focus for spelling words was on adding ~ing to words.  Then reading tasks on Tuesday comprised of reading a passage looking for the main idea.  On to Writing on Wednesday and it was all about poetry.

 

Maths and Numeracy was all about Fractions and Measure. We had to find a fraction of a quantity/amount.

 

The Campus Cop came to visit us on Thursday to help us with online learning.  He reinforced the importance of NOT sharing/saying things online that may be upsetting to others and how important it is NOT to have US as our profile picture on Whatsapp, Facebook etc. AND the scary nature of how Tiktok works on our phone!!! He said we should make sure our Facebook is set to private.

The Victorians is the next topic and will be very interesting.  We have started to look at what we might like to learn – we call these our Big Questions.

 

Friday was all about the excitement of Elves arriving and trees going up at home and at school.  The class advent calendar appeared and some were lucky to get their treat already!! We had some P6 elves decorating our class tree and they did a smashing job!!! Thank you.

 

We ran our own P.E Potted Sports session with p3 this week after all the work Lynsey had done with us for our Play Award. P3 were a brilliant class and P6 did a fantastic job of planning and leading the activities they planned.

Friday ended with some Maths Advent Calendar fun and with some crazy AI!!!! We tried out Riffusion which turns any text into a song.  What a giggle.

Take care everyone and have a fabulous weekend!

P.S Here’s the Riffusion we made for Lynsey Murphy (Active Sports) to say thank you for coming and teaching p6 about the Play Award – developing their skills greatly to be able to plan and lead an activity.

NATIVITY

The Nativity this year is Angel Express and will be performed in the Church on Tuesday 12th December at 9.30am and then again at 2pm.  All pupils in the school will be singing as the Angel choir.  P3 pupils have been working very hard to learn their lines and cannot wait to perform!

Help us gain extra S-miles!

If you walk/scoot/cycle anywhere after school or at the weekend instead of taking the car, log your journey and it will gain our school extra S-miles on our Journey to Jupiter! There is a challenge this month to get 5 extra journeys from families logged. I wonder if Hurlford will succeed??!?

QR code – I chose active travel for Journey to Jupiter! (2)

Has your child got their free bus card?

HELP US BE MORE ECO FRIENDLY!

One of our Eco Action Points this year is to get more children signed up to use buses for free so we can go on more local trips in an environmentally friendly way.

Does your child have an NEC card? We would love to get all children in our school signed up so that we can easily use public transport for travelling locally.

Please visit the website and apply as soon as possible.
