In Literacy, we are continuing to work on our reading fluency and build on our confidence when reading aloud. Today, some of us paired up with members of our class whilst others were paired with primary 5 helpers. During this time, we took turns reading aloud and discussed the book we have been assigned for homework.
Well done to the previous Hufflepuff group for earning the most points before the holidays. They chose ‘ Lunch with the teacher’ as their reward. It has been lovely to sit together and eat whilst chatting about our day and interests ☺️
Whilst completing our Designers pathway, we explored how paper is made and recycled. From this, we decided to try and make our own paper. We soaked old, shredded newspapers for a few days and this formed a pulp. We then poured the pulp and rolled it out flat, letting it dry. We were delighted that this successfully formed paper ! We loved the messiness of this process 🫣
It was a cold start to our morning today. We went outdoors for P.E, completed our daily mile and ran some relay races.
We have now also changed table to give us the opportunity to work with different members of our class 🙂
We enjoyed our visit to the outdoor classroom where we completed a Health & Wellbeing task. We listened to a story and shared our fears, later drawing these in our jotters. Lots of us were afraid of spiders and the dark! We also discussed what/who helps us if we feel afraid and practised self-regulation strategies to help us feel calm. We will continue to explore our emotions and mindfulness over the coming weeks 🙂
