Mandarin

We have been enjoying Mandarin lessons this term and can now say ni hao hello and zài jiàn goodbye.

We lnvestigate some Chinese New Year traditions like giving even amounts of money in red envelopes 🧧.                                                                 During close reading tasks we discovered that eating noodles represents a long life and other names for Chinese New Year are the Spring Festival or Lunar New Year.  We explored some Chinese flowers markets and  watched the traditional dragon dance using the Virtual Reality headsets.

🍵🥔🥔Food and Textile Technology

Over the last few weeks we have used a range of simple food preparation techniques when making shortbread and potato and leek soup. We used a range of equipment like knives and potato peelers. We also learnt about weaving using needles and wool.  As a class we decided to organise an event to show our friends and family our new skills.  We created a Google Doc poster with the details of our event and started organising what we would do.  In dance we have been learning the steps for the Canadian Barn dance, the Gay Gordon’s and the Dashing White Sergeant.  We decided our guests could begin the event by learning the dance steps and joining in with us.

Merry Christmas from Primary 4!  We enjoyed making gingerbread and listening to some Christmas songs around our tree today.  See you all in 2019👍.

We designed a new Christmas cup for Starbucks.  Then we used a QR code to see what our designs looked like in AR ( augmented reality) on the iPad.  Our designs looked really bright,clear and eye catching.

🎄🎄🎄🎄🎄Primary 4 know how to party! 🎄🎄🎄🎄🎄🎄🎄

This time of year is very busy in school.  We have been making Christmas decoration which we sold at the Christmas fair.  We have also been practising our songs for the show.  Sometimes we need to just relax by the log fire, listen to Christmas music and read a good book.
