P.E- In P.E. we played basketball and worked on our footwork skills. We learned how to pivet. At the end of P.E. we all enjoyed competing in some matches!

Maths- In maths we learned how to multiply decimals. I found it hard but showed determination to complete the calculations.

Spelling- This week for active spelling I decided to use the tweezers to find the letters to make my spelling words.

In writing we have been focusing on persuasion. Next week we are going to be writing a letter to try and persuade our teacher to get new playground equipment. This week we designed our ideal playgrounds on Tinkercad. It was soooo fun!!!

We have had a fabulous week in P6B!

P.E-

P6B braved the cold frosty weather this morning and went outside to play hockey.

Cormac- “When you hit the ball hard it makes a really nice sound”.

Ruby- “I found it easier to hit the ball because the ground was hard”.

IDL

This week we started our topic which is Fairtrade. We learned the difference between a wants and a need.

Alex- ” A want is something you would like but not essential to survive. A need is something that is essential to live.”

Writing

In writing our focus has been persuasion. This week we were persuading people to come to Scotland.

Alex- “I wrote about an award that Scotland won”

Matthew- “I write about Kelvingrove Art Gallery”

Ruby- “I wrote about my favourite food which is haggis, neeps and tatties”

Happy New Year from everyone in P6b! We have had an excellent start to the year filled with hard work and fun.

Matthew- ‘In P.E. we started learning new skills in basketball and it was really fun’.

Alex- ‘We have been learning about shapes in maths. I love maths’.

Arnav- ‘I am new in P6b and I have met new friends who are really nice and kind’.

Eva- ‘We have been learning about 2D shapes and their properties. For example a square has 4 vertices, 4 equal edges, 4 angles and 1 face’.
