Tuesday<\/strong><\/em>: In Numeracy we learned how to find a percentage of an amount. It really helped to know our equivalents and multiplication and division facts.\u00a0 We then read the next chapter of our class novel and used higher order thinking skills to respond to a range of different questions. In the afternoon we used ICT to research information on the planets.\u00a0 Did you know that Saturn would float if there was a swimming pool big enough?!<\/p>\n Wednesday:<\/strong><\/em> We continued our measure work with Miss Gibson. She was very impressed with how well we could convert metres, centimetres and millimetres. For Health & Wellbeing we created\u00a0 menus which included a balance of nutrients from all the different food groups. Maybe some of us could be dieticians in the future.\u00a0 Later, we got the chance to buy a book at the Book Fair. After lunch we learned about a special time of year for Muslims called Ramadan, then we had our WOW session.\u00a0 To finish the day we did some role play activities based on our class novel The Demon Headmaster.\u00a0 Some of us would love to be actors when we grow up.<\/p>\n Thursday<\/strong><\/em>: In the morning we focused on reading for the main idea, prediction and finding effective examples of VCOP in our novel. For numeracy we did a Chilli Challenge for our percentages work then we had an exciting STEM\/Outdoor Learning session with Mrs Ferguson. In the afternoon, for our Space topic, we learned that we get day and night due to the Earth spinning on its axis. After that we headed outside again for our football training session.\u00a0 We all tried hard to uplevel our skills.<\/p>\n Friday:<\/strong><\/em> Today, we are focusing on how to structure paragraphs, completing spelling assessments and revising our key learning for fractions, decimals and percentages. For Interdisciplinary learning we will be using laptops and I-pads to create a Powerpoint on the solar system and using a graphics program to draw a space themed picture.<\/p>\n We’re looking forward to a rest over the long weekend. Enjoy!<\/p>\n See you back on Tuesday!<\/p>\n","protected":false},"excerpt":{"rendered":" Happy Friday everyone! Here’s a round up of what Primary 6 has been doing this week.
