Week 1
P6a have gotten off to a fantastic start to this year. They were introduced to this terms novel “Street Child” and worked on their prediction skills.
They recounted their summer break and shared their news with their classmates.
Children were given the opportunity to hear and try a brass instrument and forms have been sent home should you wish to sign them up for lessons.
On dry days this week we seized the opportunity to begin outdoor learning. Children were given the opportunity to work as a team to problem solve and build resources. On Friday we joined up with P6b for a scavenger hunt.
Well done to the children who acted as class reporters and photographers this week !
Star of the week
Well done to our Star of the week who received house points and a prize. Over the next week all of her classmates will have the opportunity to give a “shout out” to her which she can take home on Friday.
Homework P6a
Homework has been assigned on Education city. All groups are working on the 4 operations (addition, subtraction, multiplication and division) including the associated language of maths and words problems. This should be completed daily between now and the October break until % has been achieved on all the assigned tasks.
In addition to this pupils are asked to complete written calculation that will be assigned on Monday and collected on Friday. This should be completed in their Homework jotter.
Spelling homework will be issued on a Monday and collected on a Friday. The Friday assessment will focus on the rule as opposed to being a memory test of assigned words. All pupils have been issued list of rules between now and the October break and the dates on which theses will be taught in class.
Pupils are encouraged to read for enjoyment daily and may borrow books from my class library to do so or they can read a book that they have a home.
Any question, please do not hesitate to contact me.
