Hurlford Primary School and Early Childhood Centre

Well today is the last day of Term 1 and the class have continued to work exceptionally well this week.  The class wanted you to know a few things about our learning this week.  They are:

Skiing – a huge hit as always!!! It is definitely not easy BUT the skills they are learning and how much they have learned is incredible and are sure to help develop their other sports and be better at them!!  Tubing is crazy and fun.  The slope was very fast due to the amount of rain. We only have 3 more weeks left after the October week! By Josh

Maths – step division. Bus Stop sums… long division.  It was easier as they did more work and had more practice!  The needed to check that the number they were dividing was in that times table so there were no remainders. By Josh

Topic – So I wanted to tell you about the work being completed on Forces and Friction.  I wanted to say about low and high friction and some examples of them.  Rough surfaces can be high friction because it will slow you down and low friction is when it speeds you up.  So that would mean a wet surface or a slippery surface you would have low friction.  The opposite is a rough or a bumpy surface which would give you high friction.  By Logan G

Writing – We did a story for our fab files.  It had to be really detailed and quite long because it was the first story of P6 and was being kept in our files.  It was our own choice to write about anything you wanted.  We also did a reading task.  We read the passage twice and then answered questions about the passage.  The easy part was reading it and the hardest part was thinking it through questions.

Have a lovely holiday everyone.
