This week was Book Week Scotland.
Kaiden – We drew characters from our reading books as described by our partner. It was hard to draw a character who you already had an image of in your head.
Darcy – Mrs McGuigan visited the class to hand out achievement certificates. It felt amazing! 
Hannah – We made ‘Starbook’ tokens to recommend to other classes and teachers to encourage them to read more books. 
Emilia – For outdoor learning we were doing freeze frames linked to the life of John Muir and We’re Going on a Bear Hunt. 
John – For the Gruffalo and The Three Little Pigs we created headlines that were sensible and linked and also ones that were ‘Clickbait.’
Daniel – We finished our Titanic topic by learning about the events surrounding it’s crash. We discovered in our class only 10 out of 33 would have survived.
Emilia – We found out that the number of people who died was the same amount of people as there are pupils at Eastwood. There are not normally as many icebergs in April as there were in 1912. It is the fourth highest April on record.
Olivia – It only took 2 and a half hours between the Titanic hitting the iceberg and it fully sinking.
Ethan – We looked at our screws that had been sitting in salt and fresh water for a few weeks. We noticed the screws in salt and away from sunlight had rusted faster than the others.
Ethan – We finished book week with our ‘Starbooks’ reading cafe. We had hot chocolate, snacks and brought in something comfy to enjoy the afternoon.
Millie – We completed the whole school quiz to guess the teachers favourite books – I think we will win!!
