P7B Term 2 – 22/11/19

Week 5

 This week was a busy week. We had Road Safety Week and Book Week Scotland. This week we have all enjoyed learning together throughout the week from PE, french to music we all enjoyed it and had lots of fun.

This week was road safety week as part of this we had a homework activity the JRSO gave us we had to make a ‘Step up for Safe Streets’ posters. They showed how we cross the road safely. 

This week for book week we brought our favourite books and made a front cover to a sequel/prequel for the book.  We also paired up with Primary 3, Miss Agnew’s class. They read their favourite book to us then we read our favourite book to them.  

This week we were focusing our writing on our topic space. We all made an imaginary story all about a man/woman who lived on the moon. We had to create a main character and describe their thoughts and feelings and say how they got there in the first place. We all ended up with completely different stories to each other but they were all equally good and we had lots of fun throughout.

In PE we have been learning different gymnastics rolls, jumps,balances and positions. In PE we got into twos and threes and we made a sequence or rolls, jumps and balances. Then we performed our sequence to the class. Once we performed it we self and peer assessed it.

In french we were learning different speeches and talking to our shoulder partner in french.It was also challenging as we had to say our names, ages, family, friends and lots more stuff.

For music we have been using Chrome Music lab. How it works is that you use the solfa scale to make the music along with beats. The sounds in the solfa scale are: do, re, mi, fa, so, la, ti and do. The first “do” being the lowest and the last “do” being the highest. Then there was the beats which are the (in music) basic units of time. We got to choose different instruments such as: marimba,strings,keys and synth. Then we made a tune then presented it to the class.
