Here are some photos from the last 2 weeks!
In Literacy we have been revising common words and diagraph sounds.
Miss Geddes delivered a very exciting final capacity lesson! The boys and girls worked in groups to create their own potions.
STEM challenges
Miss McCann challenged everyone to make a Lego maze for a marble! We had to plan our design and work in teams.
Miss Geddes asked everyone to create a support which would hold a swing- this proved to be very tricky! The boys and girls tested them out with Lego figures!
Our final team challenge was a paper chain challenge! Everyone got the same amount of paper, glue sticks and time. There were lots of interesting strategies used showing excellent innovation and team work!
We then joined them together to make a chain with over 250 links and used it to decorate the classroom!
French
Miss Geddes helped us to learn about the parts of our face in French! We labelled diagrams, played a pairs game and Miss McCann played ‘Jacques a dit’ (Simon Says) with everyone!
We were very sad to say goodbye to Miss Geddes on Wednesday, she has helped everyone to learn lots! We wish her the best of luck on her next placement.
Dinosaur Solo Talks
On Friday- we wrapped up our wonderful Dinosaur topic with some solo talks titled ‘My Favourite Dinosaur.’
I would like to thank everyone for their hard work and time spent practising these solo talks.
Everyone shared their knowledge confidently and we even had some jokes, quizzes and amazing posters and props to go alongisde!
Everyone got the chance to peer assess a friend’s talk. We were checking for eye contact, clear and loud speech and interesting facts.
Finally, we decorated the classroom for the festive season with our paper chain, christmas decorations and tree! Excitement is in the air!
