Welcome back to our blog. Since our last post, we have enjoyed our Spring holiday and continued to work hard.

Last week we were super excited as it was our turn for our classroom to be refurbished. We have moved into our temporary classroom while the work is underway and we are enjoying our first taster of working in a lovely refurbished room. P4/5 did a wonderful job helping Mrs O’Neil to organise and pack!

Here we are enjoying our first few days!

IDL- Expressive Arts/Literacy

We have been exploring the Viking belief system and learning about the many Gods and Goddesses. We have researched and taken notes about Viking jobs and clothing and created Mood Boards using appropriate materials to represent a Viking’s clothes.

 

We have used our art skills to create Viking brooches using card, string and tin foil.

We also created our own Viking swords and shields decorated with runes and runic symbols. Check out our fearsome warriors!

Pupils also worked together to create a script and to perform it to the class. We have many budding actors in the class!

Numeracy

P4/5 are super confident working with fractions and have compared and ordered fractions.  Pupils played lots of games including a challenge to beat their partner when finding equivalent fractions.

Learners are now exploring rounding numbers to the nearest 10 and 100.

Thank you for reading our blog post and stay tuned for the next one!

Mrs O’Neil 🙂
