What a quick week it has been in P7!
We have completed our World War 2 topic by learning about VE Day and VJ Day and designing medals of bravery. We also finished listening to the book, ‘Friend or Foe,’ by Michael Morpurgo which is about two evacuees. We enjoyed trying to predict what would happen next.
Everyone did really well with identifying singular and plural words and deciding where to place apostrophes to show possession. This can be tricky, especially when some plural words just add s (e.g cats) and others change (child- children).
We have revised the concept of division and some of us had a go at using numicon to help visualise the calculations. This will be developed further next week.
There were some fantastic writing skills on display when creating a character called The Jar Wizard, with lots of similes and metaphors being used to add detail.
Mrs Ferguson turned P7 pupils into forensic scientists on Tuesday by investigating fingerprints and the best materials for capturing them. They tested lots of different materials, such as flour, whiteboard pens and cocoa powder.
Here are a few photos showing some of last week’s work about Robert Burns and Chinese New Year.
Please hand in homework jotters on Friday and remember to visit the educationcity.com homework folder.
Keep practising for the Scots Verse Competition too as finalists will be chosen on Wednesday.
