What a busy week in primary 7! We have been doing lots of things. Here is a snippet of our week:

Cloud Busting

We are well into our book now and have become more familiar with the main characters. A few twists and turning points have been revealed and it is getting more interesting. We have created comparison paragraphs to share our views on characters and even created a comic strip for chapter 10.

Poetry writing with metaphors

We had a go at writing poems with metaphors. Mrs Rasul let us write on our tables, we had to think of all the words that come to our mind linked to poetry and then had to ‘brain dump’ on our desks. This was fun. Then we went on to see examples of metaphors and created our own poems full of them!

Problem solving

We have been revising the four operations in maths (addition, subtraction, multiplication and division) and we had a go at solving worded problems linked to these.

Kapla

Since we are reading cloud busting, we had a go at creating our very own cloud busting towers using Kapla. Each group went for a different style. The criteria was:

• It had to be free standing
• It had to have a viewing tower
• It had to have a space for storage.

Have a look at some of our end results!
