Weekly Round-Up

On Monday, Primary 4 had a great day with Mr Clark. He commented on how helpful and welcoming the pupils were, which was lovely to hear.

This week we have been finishing off our work on rounding in maths and have been continuing to work on learning our times tables. Nadia has been working so hard and has managed to complete her times table passport this week. Well done Nadia!

We have all been working so hard to meet our learning targets in writing.

We have been continuing to practise our numbers in French and had fun playing the game ‘lotto’. We have also been learning to recognise, pronounce and spell the letters of the alphabet in French.

     

We have been learning about instrument families in an orchestra in Music. Alfie and Sophie in P7 have been learning to play the trombone and came into our class to perform for us. They were fantastic!

It’s hard to believe that next week is the last week of term 1!

This week in P4

This week in Primary 4 we have been learning to round 2 and 3 digit numbers to the nearest 10 in numeracy and creating some super pieces of writing in literacy. We have been learning to ask how people are feeling in French and developing an understanding of the musical instruments in an orchestra in Music. In Science we have been learning about renewable and non-renewable energy.

On Monday Primary 4 will have a supply teacher, Mr Clark. The class will have P.E. on Monday afternoon so must have their P.E. kit in order to take part.

Weekly Round-Up

It has been a busy week of learning in Primary 4! We have been finishing off our learning on place value and whole numbers in maths. In literacy we have been free writing and we have also been learning about different world religions in RME.

It was so nice to welcome families into the classroom for our Numeracy Open Morning on Tuesday. 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.

We went for a class walk to The Voes to feed the ducks this week.

Nadia was the winner of a Ruby Reward ticket today and chose Demi to sit with her at the Ruby Reward table. Well done Nadia!

Have a lovely holiday weekend!

Homework – Week 1

This term our focus for homework will be times tables. Pupils have been given an Ultimate Times Table Challenge to complete for homework this week. This will allow pupils to practise times tables that they have already been learning.

By the end of Primary 4 pupils should know the 1 to 10 times tables and be able to recall multiplication facts with speed and accuracy. This knowledge will help to support them in other aspects of maths. Lots of practise committing times tables to memory will be our focus this session.

Homework should be returned by Tuesday 23rd September.

This week in P4

This week we went for our first class walk to the river. We had lots of fun throwing stones in the water and spotted lots of interesting things including butterflies, brambles, the leaves starting to change colour and a birds egg.

In literacy we have been continuing to work on using punctuation in our writing. Alfie produced some super writing this week using a range of punctuation marks.

Demi was a great word detective and managed to find a word with our focus phoneme ‘oe’ in her reading book.

In numeracy we have been reinforcing partitioning and Number Talk strategies. We have also been learning to read and write numbers in words.

       

We have been learning about different types of energy in Science and have been creating ‘All About Me’ digital collages in Technology.

First full week in P4

Primary 4 have had a great first full week in class and have settled well into their new routines.

This week we have been working hard practising times tables and partitioning 3 digit numbers in numeracy. We started our new book study ‘The Twits’ by Roald Dahl in literacy and have been working on the reading strategies ‘prior knowledge’ and ‘main ideas’. We also worked together to create our ‘Class Charter’ for this session.

       

We have been discussing our school value ‘Respect’ and the ways in which we show respect in school. We made a poster to go on display in the main corridor.

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 (including earrings) must be removed before taking part in lessons.
