This week we have been learning another new reading strategy:  Metalingustics.  This means exploring the meaning of words.  We looked at some words in our book study, then we used our class dictionaries to help us learn new words.  We also loved playing ‘Fastest Finger’ game using our dictionaries, to see who could find the words first.

We have also been investigating numbers before and after.

We have been showing what we have learned about healthy eating by creating our own Healthy Eating Posters.  Don’t they look great!

We have also been learning more about lighthouses.  We have used Google Maps to find locations of some Scottish lighthouses and put them on our own Scotland map.

This week our Confident Individual is Jack.  Jack is showing increasing confidence when writing independently.  Well done!
