This week we have been working on creating our Scottish Afternoon. We have been learning Scottish songs, creating artwork and learning lots about poetry and traditions in Scotland. We are looking forward to inviting our parents to see this. It should be really fun.

In writing we created our own Scottish poems with an AABB rhyming pattern. It was tricky to make them rhyme but it was good fun. We’d like to do more poetry writing.

In French we have been learning to read, write and say different sports. We have also been working in partners and asking each other what our favourite sports are in French. It is tricky but we are working hard.

Euler has been learning about co-ordinates. They have been plotting points and creating their co-ordinate grids. It’s been great fun! We have started to revise perimeter.

Turing has been learning about place value to tens of thousands. We have been saying numbers, writing numbers and ordering numbers. It is a little tricky but we are working very hard on our knowledge of place value.

In Drama we were pretending to throw things to each other. We had to say what the thing was and then the name of someone to catch it. We’re getting very good at mining!

The magazines have started reading The Lion, the Witch and the Wardrobe. We are really looking forward to reading more of this book.

In PE we went into teams and were trying to improve our running skills. We started the bleep test!
