w/c 1st November 2020

 

Literacy and English

In Writing, we have been focusing on setting and character using a spooky setting for inspiration.  Mrs Allan was quite frankly terrified by our work and was glad she marked in a well-lit room.  Some of us have chosen it to go on our WOW wall.

Numeracy and Maths

The Mathletes have been learning about percentages of quantities and linking these to decimals and fractions. the Subtraction Samurai and Division Doctors have been working on co-ordinates.

 

COP26

We have been talking about COP and climate change and thinking about the things that we already do at home and in school to help combat climate change.  In the woodland, we were building structures about what we thought the future might look like.  For example, we made models of electric cars, desolate woodlands and a bike.  Videos of these will go into next week’s assembly.

Expressive Arts

We used the Titanic as a context for acting our emotions this week in drama… can you guess which ones we are emoting?

 

 

PE

In PE we have been further developing our skills in hockey, especially passing during a game.  It seems our interceptions skills are good too – some teams found it really hard to score!

 

Dyslexia Awareness Week

Ruby and Leon worked hard on a presentation that they share with pupils in P4-7 this week, and helped us to “myth-bust” using another video. Thank you for teaching us!
