Welcome back to our blog!

This week we have been learning more about Scottish clans.

‘We created a timeline of the history of Scotland.’ Hamiz

‘Robert the Bruce gifted lands to clans.’ Warren

‘During The Highland Clearances, English landowners tried to wipe out clans. People’s houses were burned down.’ Sam

Jessica brought some books to share with everyone about the Urquhart clan.

‘I also brought in a book that I showed to the class, about a boy called Rob who fights in the Jacobite army and his clan was clan MacDonald.’ James

‘In writing we up-leveled sentences using ISPACE at the start of the sentence.’ Hamiz

‘Some of us read our stories at the end and we shared positive points about our writing.’ Molly

 

‘In P.E. we started with warm up games, like Octopus Tig. Then we played Caterpillar catch, where you have to form zig zags and pass down the line. Then we played Kingball and Mat ball.’ Ayyan

‘Today we had 2 star players! Well done to Emilia and Sam!’ Molly

 

‘In outdoor learning we went to the woodland and found natural materials to dye fabric.’ Heather

‘After the holidays, we are going to pick colours that we made from the dye and make tartan.’ Eleanor

‘I think that it was really fun finding different types of berries to make different colours.’ Ayyan

 

‘In Maths we were trying to find out how many different shapes there were in classroom.’ Sam

‘We were also learning about angles in a triangle. The triangle were all sides are different is called a scalene.’  Lauren

‘If two sides of the triangle are the same, it’s called an isosceles and if they are all equal it is an equilateral triangle.’ Sam & Harry

‘We learned about 3D shapes and learned about faces, edges and vertices.’ Warren

 

Have a nice holiday and see you again in our next blog!  : )
