Happy New Year and welcome back to our blog!
“This week, we started reciprocal reading. We made a circle with our chairs to read together. Three people had to look up the dictionary for words that the class wanted clarified. We read about New Year and this way of reading was a bit different.” Samarth
“We learned some new words that we didn’t know and I really liked it!” Sarah
“In Maths, we were learning about area. To work out area you can count squares inside a shape, if the line is curvy on the shape you only count the squares that are full or half or more.” Neave
“We also played an area game and you to make a shape with a certain area. Some people even created connectives!” Basmah
“Yesterday, we found out our new topic which is about Robert Burns. He was a Scottish poet and we are planning to have our own Burn’s supper!” Abdallah
“We also learned he wrote poems about things that happened in real life, like his poem about a mouse. On his birthday every year, people eat haggis, neeps and tatties.” Lucas
“Yesterday we played a Kahoot game about Burns. It was medium challenging and fun!” Waniyyah
“Today we were planning ode poems about our favourite things, inspired by Robert Burns.” Amara
“My ode poem is going to be all about football!” Fraser
“In Art, we added on to our skyline. We had the colours, blue, white and black and we started to paint with white and blue. We mixed them together and when it got darker and darker we added black with the blue. Next week, we are going to paint a tree in the middle of our picture.” Blair Alba
Tune in next week for more!
