This week we reached our class target of 1500 dojos! So we got our first treat of pancakes and mocktails. This is all the other things we did:

Matilda STEAL lesson

We read an extract from Matilda then used the STEAL analysis to explore Miss Trunchbull’s and Miss Honey’s characters. STEAL stands for Speech, Thoughts, Effects on others, Actions and looks.

Eastwood P.E.

At Eastwood P.E. We are now in mixed groups with the other P7s and doing a 6 week block of the same sport. The options include:

Football, Hockey, Tennis, Netball, Rugby and Athletics.

Diwali

We learned about the festival of Diwali and we made origami boats (for divas) and cool Rangoli patterns with square paper and they turned out really cool!

Reading books/Prediction

Today we just got our new reading books and we had to make predictions from only seeing the blurb and front cover. We had to predict the genre, setting, time period, characters and plot.

Percentages

This week we have learned how to find the percentage of an amount. We know 50% is a half so you divide by 2.

Heartstart

In Heartstart we learned how to save someone’s life if they had a heart attack, cardiac arrest, internal bleeding and choking.
