This week we started to play football in PE. We have been learning to dribble and pass the ball to each other. Sometimes people will come out to the front to demonstrate a skill to the class. We are enjoying playing football.
As it is Halloween this week we have been doing some pumpkin art. We were inspired by a Japanese artist who made a giant pumpkin with polka dots. We used lots of coloured pens to create our beautiful pumpkins. We also drew haunted houses using different shapes, it was a lot of fun.
We made our gratitude trees this week. They show what we are really thankful for in life. Some examples of what we are thankful for are: our family, having clean water and that we have somewhere safe to live.
Yesterday we were learning to write newspaper articles. We wrote about COP26 and the leaders of the different countries involved. We had to include a headline and we were focusing on the 5Ws – what, where, when, why and who!
Some of us have been learning about time this week. We have been learning all about quarter to and quarter past the hour. We are starting to get the hang of how to tell the time but we are going to keep working on it to build our confidence.
We have been doing the daily 10 in numeracy. We are asked ten questions and we have to try and answer them before the timer runs out.
We have been very lucky this week as Miss McCaig has come to work with us for six weeks. We have been getting to know each other by playing some fun games and creating bunting about ourselves.
As we have been working so hard we managed to earn enough tickets to have a cosy party. It was awesome!
