‘Welcome to this week’s blog. We hope you enjoy reading about our week!’ Molly

‘In outdoor learning, we completed a scavenger hunt to find living things, I found lots of birds but couldn’t spot any clovers.’ Lauren

‘I found lots of ants but couldn’t see any dandelions.’ Tia

‘This week in drama with Mrs Hutchison, we were doing more improvisation. We were in small groups and had to either act like Jack (and persuade his friend about the beanstalk) or his friend. Another scene was acting as Jack and explaining to your mum what had just happened.’ Jess

‘I really enjoyed this because some of the groups that acted were really funny.’ Harry

‘Today with Mrs Hutchison, my art group, were drawing flowers that we saw and coloured them in to make them look realistic.’ Isla

‘This week, (after trials last week) some of us went to Rouken Glen Country park to compete in a race. I came 77th out of roughly 200 boys!’ James

‘For the girls’ race, I came 56th out of about 160! This was quite fun! The other girls did very well.’ Eleanor

‘This morning the JRSOs came in to tell us about Sustran’s walk and wheel. It’s a competition in which you compete against other schools and if you get more than 15% of your school walking each day for 2 weeks, you get a prize.’ Ayyan

‘On Thursday, we luckily did a little extra P.E. outside, as it was very good weather.’ Euan

‘This week in maths we did something  a bit different. We did a rotation which was 4 stations, each one had a different thing to do. There was mental maths strategies with Mrs Hobson, Sumdog, a maths calendar with a mix of questions and maths board games. This was fun!’ Eleanor

‘On Monday, we were working in our reciprocal reading groups and read a non-fiction text about turtles. Together we clarified tricky words form the text, created 3 questions and a short summary.’ Molly

‘In science, we were learning about plants and farming. We had to invent 3 farming machines that would help to grow crops and then we peer assessed these and some showed theirs to the class.’ Ayyan

‘One of my inventions was called Big Foot! It has wheels, a propeller and an umbrella to prevent rust. It can fly and plants cabbage seeds.’ Luca Fr

‘In P.E. today, we were learning more ball and racket skills. We played a warm up game called Bingo, which involved meeting a target. Once you’d done this you shouted out “BINGO!”  Bella

‘When we were doing tennis, I found it really hard and fun.  I was also picked by the audience to demonstrate.’ Soph

‘Thank you for reading this week’s blog. See you next week!’ Sam

 

 

 

 

‘Hi, welcome to this week’s blog starring P6a, this week was science week!’ Bruce

‘On Monday we were doing try outs for the Rouken Glen cross country competition.  This was tough but really fun.’ Euan

‘I was one of the people who got chosen for the team, James, Harry and Sam were also chosen.  I look forward to competing.’ Luca Fi

‘On Tuesday during outdoor learning we collected half a beaker full of soil in groups, then on Friday we completed an experiment.  We were trying to find out about the different layers of soil and finding out if they were good quality or not.  I enjoyed this!’ Molly

‘As part of science week we watched a live lesson about farming machinery with a focus on precise weeding.  We got to try this out ourselves with corn and peas.  We had the choice of different tools such as a spoon or tweezers, we had to pick as many peas as possible in 20 seconds.  This was really fun.’ Eleanor

‘I found this activity harder when we could only pick up one pea at a time, it also got harder when we introduced quality control.’ Molly

‘During maths with Mrs Lamont we made graphs about height and age, on my graph I found the taller the person the older they were.’ Euan

‘On Thursday some of us worked with Mrs Nasar, we read an instructions text on how to set a timer on a mobile phone.  I really liked this.’ Lexi

‘This week in music with Mrs Hutchison we were practicing how to draw a treble clef and also how to draw notes on the stave.  I really enjoyed this.’ Jess

‘Today in our lesson for our Blue Planet topic we will be having a picnic as it is unfortunately Miss Bruce’s last day with us.  We are happy she is going to teach her own class now!’ Ayyan

‘In PE we were starting a new topic, which was racket sports.  Today we focused on badminton which I really enjoyed.’ Luca Fi

‘Today we finished reading our class novel ‘Chill’, it was a scary book which kept us on the edge of our seats…the ending helped everything make sense.’ Lauren

‘We hope you have enjoyed our blog, see you again next week, bye!’ Dylan

 

‘Welcome to this week’s blog, we hope you enjoy finding out what we did this week.’ Euan

‘This week when we were doing outdoor learning we continued with the John Muir project.  Each table got a different area, we got gloves and bin bags to clear up our area. ‘Jess

‘My table got the teepee area, we managed to clear up a lot of the leaves. Hopefully now more grass can grow.’ Eleanor

‘In maths this week we played games on the Chromebooks which were about area and perimeter.  I learnt a lot.’ Harry

‘In maths we were doing a worksheet which was about the area of a triangle.  We realised the area of a triangle is half the area of a rectangle/square.’ Lexi

‘On Monday in PE we were doing fitness stations, which included planks, skipping, relay and rest stations.  I had fun.’ Lexi

‘During writing on Wednesday everyone got into partners and researched facts about animals.  We answered questions such as, where they live, who they live with, what they eat and what eats them.  We took notes on this and will be making a fact file next week.’ Molly

‘In topic we were finishing up our vision of enclosures for our sea animals.  We chose an animal and drew what we think might be suitable for them.  Luca and I chose a shark, we drew this on squared paper.’ Ayyan

‘On Thursday in drama we did something called ‘What’s on the TV’ Molly and I chose to act out Cbeebies. It was really fun.’ Bella

‘In PE today we were presenting our gymnastics routines with a partner in front of the class.  I enjoyed it.’ Leaah

‘I really enjoyed watching all of the routines, I thought they were really good.  My group won as well as 2 others!’ Cara

‘Today some children went with Mrs Hutchison to do art.  We made notan, which was like a mirrored image.  I enjoyed this.’ Isla

‘We hope you liked our blog, tune in next week for more.’ Hollie

‘In outdoor learning we looked for insects in their habitats, this is a picture of me and Lauren being explorers.’ Jess

‘On Thursday for World Book Day we completed a quiz guessing the names of characters, the name of books and authors.  We had a picnic, we enjoyed some crisps and chocolate.  We also got to see a live author talking, we then watched some Matilda.’ Bella

‘I enjoyed doing the quiz… I also won it! World Book Day was fun.’ Eleanor

‘This week in writing we had to persuade someone to buy an item or visit a place.  I got a restaurant deal, I found it very tricky.’ Harry

‘This week in PE we were practicing for our routine, which is next week.  We have to include starting positions, an inversion and travelling.  I really enjoyed it.’ Luca Fr

‘I enjoyed doing our Fairtrade lesson,  we learnt about how chocolate is made.  I learnt how important Fairtrade is.’ Hashim

‘In my opinion me and Beth’s poster is really awesome mostly because we created the coolest rap ever.’ Lauren

‘For health and wellbeing this week we continued to work on our Fairtrade posters.  Bruce and I made sure there were lots of pictures and subheadings, our theme was blue and green because that is the colours of the Fairtrade logo.’ Ayyan

‘Today we had the first in person assembly in 2 years, it was nice to see everyone together again.  I got a certificate for contributing in reciprocal reading.’ Euan
