P4 Homework
It’s that time of year again when we start homework. At the moment we will be concentrating on our spelling and phonics. The children have all had what we expect of them for homework explained clearly, but everyone forgets things, so the P4 teachers thought it would be handy to explain to parents and carers too, so there is no confusion.
- Children will copy their own spelling words in class – these have to be copied using Look Say Cover Write and Check (LSCWC) 2 more times.
- Then children are expected to write 3 sentences using at least 3 words.
- Two active spelling activities should be completed…
This week RAINBOW WRITING and TOUCH WRITING (children draw out the word on your hand or back).
Bug Club books will also be allocated to each child and at least one should be completed every week.
Maths homework will be given as and when appropriate.
- Homework will be issued on a Monday and we expect it to be back in on a Friday.
Thank you very much for your help and support.

P4E are settling in.
After nearly finishing the first 2 weeks of the new term at Onthank, we are now settling into a routine.
Our class topic is Ancient Egyptians.
We have P.E on Monday’s and Thursday’s.
It is East Ayrshire policy to not allow any jewellery to be worn at gym times and unfortunately we are not able or permitted to cover pierced ears with tape. Any child unable to remove their earring on gym days will have to sit out at the side until they can remove their earrings.

P4E Culzean Chaos
We had a glorious day at Culzean today.
Bug hunting, woods walking, lunch munching and seaside paddling. We couldn’t have asked for a better summer day out.
Thank you to our parent helpers for making the day so special.
Fantastic Fractions
P4E were given the task of making a fraction wall using only paper, pencils, a ruler and scissors. We worked hard to find a magical solution to this problem. Here’s how we got on…
P4E Multiplication Scavenger Hunt
On Friday the class paired up to try to complete a scavenger hunt with a difference. We used the school IPads to scan QR code clues in order to answer times table calculations. Some of us even managed to finish the hunt successfully. We had lots of fun trying this out for the first time.
The previous calculation answer with the next clue code to scan.
