\u270f\ufe0f Welcome to a brand new school year in Primary 4<\/strong>!\ud83d\udcd8<\/p>\n

We are so excited to begin this learning journey together and are looking forward to sharing all the exciting things we\u2019ll be discovering this year. From new topics and skills to fun activities and class projects \u2014 there\u2019s so much to look forward to!<\/p>\n

\ud83d\udcf8 As we are still waiting for all digital consent forms to be returned, the children’s faces have been blocked out in this post for privacy.<\/p>\n

The children have settled into P4 and have already started to make their classroom look amazing with their work.\u00a0 Here is a sneak peek to keep you going until our first open day on Tuesday the 16th of September.<\/p>\n

The children made ‘all about me hearts’ with Mrs Denny on their taster days, which are now proudly displayed.<\/p>\n

\ud83d\udd75 Literacy Learning: Grammar Detectives at Work!\u270f\ufe0f <\/strong><\/p>\n

In Literacy, the children have been revisiting nouns, with a focus on proper nouns. To make learning fun and active, they became Grammar Detectives!<\/p>\n

Working in groups, the children proofread a letter and carefully identified all the proper nouns hidden within the text. Once they spotted them, they made corrections by capitalising the proper nouns\u2014just like real editors!\u00a0 This activity helped strengthen their understanding of grammar rules while building teamwork and attention to detail. Great job, Primary 4!<\/p>\n

\"\" \"\" \"\" \"\" \"\"<\/p>\n

The children have also enjoyed listening to Newsround and making notes about the important events happening!<\/p>\n

\ud83d\udcad\ud83d\udcadCelebrating Success with Our 3D Hands Display\ud83d\udcad\ud83d\udcad<\/strong><\/p>\n

The children have been busy creating stunning 3D-effect hands for their “stuck with me” display.\u00a0 An eye-catching way to celebrate the moments they have learnt something new.<\/p>\n

At the end of each day or week, the children will reflect on their learning and identify a new skill or concept they have mastered. These moments of success will be added to the display, turning it into a living wall of achievements.<\/p>\n

This should build confidence but also encourage the children to think about their next steps and\u00a0 support the children to understand how<\/em> they learn, not just what<\/em> they learn.<\/p>\n

We can\u2019t wait to see the wall grow with accomplishment!<\/p>\n<\/div>\n<\/div>\n<\/div>\n<\/div>\n

\ud83e\udde0\ud83e\uddbf\ud83e\udec1<\/strong> IDL: Exploring the Human Body\ud83e\udde0\ud83d\udc80<\/strong><\/p>\n

We\u2019ve kicked off our first Interdisciplinary Learning (IDL) topic:\u00a0 \u00a0 \u00a0 \u00a0 \u00a0 \u00a0 The Human Body and How to Keep It Healthy<\/strong>.<\/p>\n

The children brought fantastic prior knowledge to our class discussions and impressed me with how much they already knew! They worked together to generate “big questions” that they will explore further as the topic progresses.<\/p>\n

It\u2019s been brilliant to see such strong pupil voice in action \u2014 helping to shape the direction of their learning and making the IDL more meaningful and engaging for everyone.<\/p>\n

We can\u2019t wait to discover more as we continue our journey through the human body! You can see from our photos below that we all had a great time trying to get\u00a0 the bones in the correct place.<\/p>\n

\ud83e\uddee<\/span> Numeracy: Multiplication in Bloom!<\/strong><\/p>\n

In Numeracy, the children have been showcasing their knowledge of multiplication in creative and colourful ways.<\/p>\n

They created their very own multiplication flowers, carefully designing each petal to display different multiplication facts. This activity helped reinforce their times tables while allowing them to be artistic\u00a0 in their learning.<\/p>\n

The classroom is now blooming with these beautiful flowers \u2014 a fantastic way to celebrate their hard work and understanding of multiplication!<\/p>\n
