On Friday, Mrs Connell challenged us to create our own artwork using the materials around us in our green space. Using leaves and sticks, although some us got a bit messy in the mud, we created some pictures. Have a look…

We have been learning about doubles and addition in maths.
We also had a really fun Halloween day. We had a scavenger hunt, dooking for apples and fun activities like making spider webs, making paper chains and much more. We had such a great time.

The ceilidh was super fun we were having the best night of our lives.
In maths we have been learning more addition strategies and some subtraction strategies.
We were learning fact triangles.
In literacy we have been learning new phonemes and also some descriptive character writing about the Night Zoo. We had to write our own character description. We used core targets, similes, adjectives, adverbs and paragraphs.
Yesterday we went on a fun trip to the Titanic Exhibition. We met members of the crew and saw the hull, the funnel and the pulley from the ship. One woman was playing cards when disaster struck and the cards were on display. Women and children got on the lifeboats first. When it was sinking the weight of the water in the ship broke it in half. We had an excellent day and learned lots of facts about the Titanic.

Happy Pirate Day 🏴☠️
Happy Talk like a Pirate Day! Arrrr… 🏴☠️
Look at our lovely crew of shipmates.
Here’s this week’s highlights!
Place value perfection! This week everyone completed their place value assessments and did absolutely amazing, showing Mrs Connell what they’d learned. A very proud teacher indeed.
We learned about synonyms and used a thesaurus to find words. Boiling, warm, burning and roasting are so much better than hot. Prehistoric and ancient are so much better than old.
On Tuesday, we learned about discrimination. Mrs Connell asked us to put post its on to different people. They said things like ‘I want to go university’ but we found it hard when we didn’t know the people. We learned that’s what discrimination is.
Have a lovely long weekend and see you all Tuesday.
Stuart and Kerrs post
This week we have been learning how to use adverbs nouns adjectives and verbs.
In maths we have learned place value and how to times by tens hundreds and thousands.
In art we have learned to scale up flowers in paintings.
In PE we played dodgeball.
Have a great weekend.
Jackson and Kerr’s post
Everyone learned how to write numbers in words.
We have started a new book called Kensuke’s Kingdom as class Novel.
We predicted how we thought what would happen in the book and played unlikely or likely with the post it’s that we made. We decided how likely each prediction was to happen.
We painted watercolour flowers with Miss Walker.
Choosing a new book 📖
Today, Primary 6/7 picked their favourite Celebration! We all had our own reasons for choosing our favourite and Mrs Connell even got her hands on a Malteaser. After, we had to choose a book we wanted to read and give a reason for our answer. Here’s our choices…
Last week…
It’s been a fun packed week with fire brigade visits and swimming, sports and water fights, ice cream and prizegiving.
All that’s left to say is have a fabulous summer, good luck to those moving on from here in their next adventure in life and we look forward to welcoming you back in August.
