Primary 6 have had a busy and productive week. Here’s a roundup of what we have been learning.

In Literacy, the spelling focus was the phoneme ai in words with ei as in neighbour. For reading this week we looked at examples of persuasive texts to identify the features of this genre of writing. We took this learning into our writing and used the OREO method to plan our own persuasive piece of writing. For talking and listening, we continued to plan and practise our short solo talks.  Next week we will chose our own topic to prepare and deliver a short solo talk to the class.

The focus in numeracy was number patterns and sequences. We all tried hard and got the hang of it very quickly. Our next step is to look at square and triangular numbers then use our knowledge and understanding to solve more complex problems.

We finished our RME topic of Ramadan and made lanterns out of card and paper called Fanoos which Muslims light during this special time of year. They look great hanging up in our classroom.

Yesterday was the start of the P6 and P7 Sports Championship finals. We have completed two events so far and there are three to go. Good luck to the finalists with the rest of the competition. It was P6’s last football training session on Thursday. We all agreed that our passing, dribbling and tackling skills have all improved. We enjoyed working as a team and everyone gave it their all.

For our Space topic this week we found out what happens during a solar and a lunar eclipse. We enjoyed demonstrating how these happen using a light source, a tennis ball and a basketball!

We’re now looking forward to a rest at the weekend!

Hello, I hope everyone has had a good week. The first full week for a while 🙂

Hi everyone,

It has been a huge privilege to spend my days with P3 Mrs McMillan’s class this week.  They have been super hard working and hopefully they’ve had some fun too.

We have been continuing the theme of the Coronation by creating royal portraits, designing royal carriages, building castles, having a café/tea party play area, designing and making coronation tea cups, learning tricky royal theme words and writing letters to the King!!!!

Here are some photographs to show your the amazing work…

Take care everyone! Have a lovely weekend!
