P6a have been practicing their song for the Burns assembly. We are lucky enough to have some very talented Highland dancers to perform for us too!

P6a have started their new novel”The Witches” by Roald Dahl. They used their reading skills to create images of a witch based on the description in the novel. They then created scripts with a partner to inform the public of the characteristics of a witch.

They acted these out and recorded them with Ipads.

These have been uploaded onto the class Google classroom for viewing.

As with last term, this does not have to be written but  can be active such as creating spelling words with sticks, back writing or using shaving foam.

This terms topic will be Europe and the learners have designed their curriculum based on their interests. We are looking forward to learning all about other countries and cultures. If you have any European artefacts we would welcome your child sharing them with the class.

The children expressed their love of Star Wars and we used this in maths by completing some Baby Yoda algebra.
