As part of our IDL topic, Charlie and the Chocolate Factory, we have been looking at money and spending within a budget. We worked out how much it will cost to make rice crispy cakes which we will enjoy making tomorrow!

 

We had a great afternoon with Malik and Kiera (digital leaders) who taught us how to use the book creator app! We displayed our thoughts and opinions on Charlie and the Chocolate Factory which is our class novel this term.

 

Lacy competed in a dance competition at the weekend and qualified to the semi finals. Well done!

 

Thursday of Maths Week involved creating some maths problems to help our peers find out more information about ourselves and key numbers in our lives. We then went outdoors to make our own maths games. These involved noughts and crosses, maths calculations and finding the line of symmetry!

 

We participated in a STEM challenge to see which group could build the tallest tower using spaghetti and marshmallows. We had to work in a team and problem solving different ways to keep our tower standing.

 

For Maths Week, we created symmetrical patterns using shapes and objects. Good job p4a!

 

This week, we have been using the loose parts to create our own shops! We created a toy shop, a candy shop, an Asda and a sushi restaurant! We also learnt how to draw a bird feather with Mrs Mac. Our new topic is Charlie and the Chocolate Factory so we have created our own cover page for this and have started to read the book together as a class. We have also been continuing to practice our basketball skills.

P4 drawing from observation and experimental mark making. Pupils are taking risks and exploring how they can draw feathers using variety of mediums.

 

 

This week we had so much fun!

People created great games using the loose parts and we were able to test them!

In P.E we were very responsible with the basketballs and were learning how to dribble.

We had a fun lesson with Mrs Macintyre exploring and sketching different birds which will link to our topic for this term!

Lacy had some crazy ideas about what the teapot might have looked like in the picture during talking and listening.

 

Today, we were using teamwork to build something of our choice. We were learning to be creative with our ideas! Using our creativity, we built dens, a beach, a tent, a swing and a zip line. We loved using our imagination to create names for our creations. They were called, The girls camp, The untrained dog house, Silver Sand and the magical house!
