Mr Atkinson’s comment:
Once again thank you for the donation of materials that we will be using for our open afternoon and I very much look forward to seeing parents and guardians during these sessions.
Literacy and English
Harley – This week was our last week of creating instructional pieces of writing. We were challenged to design a new sport that we could either use with the pupils that we look after when we are prefecting as well as try some of the activities during our upcoming P.E. lessons which we will then evaluate. We also illustrated our instructions so that the reader can check that they are doing everything correctly and we used time openers and bossy verbs.
Mehr – We all took part in a spelling check-up to see the improvements we have made over the year.
Leo – All the groups have finished their books, Stormbreaker and Percy Jackson & the Lightning Thief, so we worked in pairs and created questions based on the novels which we asked each other to answer.
Numeracy and Maths
Finlay – One of the activities we did this week was designing posters based on all the different concepts we have learned recently. We have put them on our Maths display!
IDL – Natural Disasters
Kyler – We have been learned about the different types of volcanoes and how they are formed. We then chose which type we wanted to draw and labelled the features of volcanoes.
Emma – To help us better understand why natural disasters happen we have been learning about tectonic plates and how they move. We also explored where the boundaries are and what the Ring of Fire is.
Aarohi – Working in groups we painted a tsunami, volcano, tornado and earthquake.
RME
Mehr – With Mrs Nasar we learned about the 10 plagues.
Expressive Arts
John – We have reviewing our art pieces and chose our favourite to be displayed in our P5/6 Art exhibition. We each gave our artwork titles and wrote which artistic style inspired us.
