We had three French visitors to our classroom this week who were learning about school in Scotland.  We practised short conversations to say our name, our age and where we come from.  They were very impressed with our accents! We sang Frere Jacques in a canon.  Nous sommes  fantastique!

 

 

We used different resources to practise our maths skills this week.  We created subtraction calculations using skittles and used the laptops to create numbers using tens and units.

 

In Science, we have begun to explore different types of materials.  We had a class scavenger hunt to find different items that were hard, soft and smooth.

From this we talked about what the items were made of.  We found lots of wood, plastic, metal, glass and fabric in our classroom.  Then we moved outside… can you guess which materials we found in these photographs?

We will use this knowledge to practise our sorting, designing and construction skills over the coming weeks.
