This week in Primary 4 we have been continuing to round numbers to the nearest 10 and have been learning to round numbers to the nearest 100 in maths. In literacy we have been practising spelling, reading strategies and learning all about Roald Dahl.

In P.E. this week we have been keeping fit by completing different circuits like skipping, sit ups, shuttle runs, step ups and tricep dips. It was tiring work!

We have also been learning about different musical instruments, French greetings, some British Sign Language and how to use Google Maps.

It was so nice to welcome families into the classroom for our Numeracy Open Morning on Thursday. Thank you to those of you that managed to make it along, We hope you enjoyed getting the chance to see the learning taking place in Primary 4.

On  Monday we are hoping to go for our first class walk, depending on the weather. Can pupils please come to school wearing a jacket and suitable footwear for this.

Have a great weekend!

This week in Primary 4 we have been revising Number Talk strategies and learning to round numbers to the nearest 10 in maths.

We have been learning about similes in literacy and wrote some super Rainbow Simile poems during our writing lesson this week.

We also created some beautiful rainbow mindfulness art by using lots of different patterns.

We have started to learn about Planet Earth as part of our Science topic for this term. We talked about what we already knew, what we wanted to learn and we were identifying living and non-lining things. We also had fun playing team games during our P.E. lesson with Mrs McKenna.

Enjoy the sunshine this weekend!

Primary 4 have had a great first full week in class and have been working so hard.

We have been practising writing numbers in words and partitioning up to 4 digit numbers in maths. We started our new book study ‘The Twits’ by Roald Dahl in literacy. We have been working on the reading strategies ‘prior knowledge’ and visualisation. We also worked together to create our ‘Class Charter’ for this session.

We had a visit from our school meals mascot ‘Super Tattie’.

We had lots of fun playing parachute games in P.E.

Our PE days in P4 will be a Monday and Wednesday.

Please make sure your child has indoor gym shoes and shorts/leggings (labelled) in order to take part in P.E.  These can be kept in school in a labelled bag. All jewellery must be removed before taking part in lessons.
