We are back! We are delighted to be reunited with our friends again after our well deserved holiday. We have been successful learners throughout all of our fantastic learning experiences this week.
Following on from our previous learning of Robert Burns and Scottish Poems, we created our own Scottish Poem! Just as Robert Burns made an ‘Address to a Haggis’, we did so with our favourite food!
‘In our Scottish poem we used Scottish dialect such as an’, ma, fair fa and soor’. – Thomas
‘My poem was about fish and chips. I changed my normal adjectives into Scottish adjectives.’ – Fara
We have began Science this term and we are learning about the Sun, Moon and Stars. Firstly, we are learning to explain why we have day and why we have night.
We can:
- identify where the natural light comes from on the earth
- explain how long it takes the Earth to complete one full spin
- use a globe, we can demonstrate an understanding of time zones
- create a diagram to demonstrate how day and night are experienced at the same time on earth
In Mathematics, we are learning to estimate and weigh items using the appropriate unit of measure.
We can:
- make a sensible estimate of the weight of the item
- weigh the item using the scale
- record the correct weight using grams or kilograms
‘A kilogram is made up of 1000grams.’ – Adam
Last week, we celebrated Chinese New Year! We explored the language Mandarin. We wrote our names using this language and enjoyed taking our time to carefully form the intricate letters.
Some of us even created our own stories and posters using Mandarin!
We created a Happy New Year Poster too!
For our final lesson for Drawing, we created a stormy landscape based on a Van Gogh painting using chalk.
What a busy week it has been indeed! Well done for always working so hard! Have a wonderful weekend superstars.
Lots of Love,
Mrs Amin ☺️ xx
