Mr Atkinson’s comment:
Thank you for all the lovely messages regarding my wedding this weekend, it is very much appreciated! This week the pupils have thoroughly enjoyed all the wonderful events with us celebrating Earth Day and Eid as well as attending the primary 4 show rehearsal. Below is a picture of the class modelling their t-shirt bags!
Literacy and English
Ruairidh – For writing we have been learning how to write instructions for drinks. We were challenged to include time openers so that we follow the steps in chronological order. We also used ‘bossy verbs’ and illustrated the steps so that they were easier to follow.
Lewis – We also turned our previous writing pieces into chapters and stapled them together to create a short story book. We then illustrated the front cover, wrote a blurb at the back and recorded the price, author and illustrator in the corner.
Numeracy and Maths
John – My group has started learning about how to create equivalent fractions and find a fraction of a quantity.
Retal – Some of us learned how to multiply using factors which made multiplying two-digit numbers together easier.
Health and Wellbeing
Eva – In our tennis lesson this week we were developing our accuracy by hitting forehand shots towards targets. It was challenging but very fun!
Tia – In the P5 philosophy lesson we took turns reading sections from a passage and then discussed the main points from it. We listened carefully to each other and shared our opinions.
Leo – For our final Substance Misuse lesson we acted out scenes of what can happen to someone when they misuse medicine by ignoring the side effects or guidance.
RME
Tia, Aarohi and Chloe – On Friday the school celebrated Eid! Some of the activities our class took part in included making fruit salad and a traditional cookie, getting henna on our hands, designing lanterns and visiting the hall to see the different stations.
IDL – Natural Disasters
Kyler – This week we started our new natural disasters topic! In groups we researched the types of disasters that occur in different parts of the world on the Chromebooks. We then typed some of the information onto our Google Slide presentation.
