A busy day indeed!

We had a very busy end to the week in 1.4. We welcomed visitors from Primary 7 who read us their wonderful stories which they had written and illustrated. The class thought they were wonderful. Then we had a cultural talk from Mrs Ali who told us about Pakistan and traditional food and clothes which was very interesting. We finished the day with our final Mearns Masters of the day where the children in the Design and Manufacture group finished their wonderful puppets and took them outside for a puppet show! We were all very tired after our busy day and are looking forward to the long holiday weekend! Have a great weekend and enjoy the sunshine everyone 😀

Following Directions

Today we were working in pairs trying to help our partner get from the start to the finishing line!  We had to work our way around the chairs which was quite tricky.  Our focus for the challenge was to make right angle turns, we traced our journeys using chalk and then we could then see the right angles on the ground.

Literacy

We have been learning about alphabetical order. We organised our tricky words into alphabetical order and wrote them on our whiteboards. Some of us worked independently to sort some words alphabetically.

Right-angles

We have been looking for right-angles around the classroom and yesterday we used twigs and cubes to make our own right-angles.  Each group created their own design using squares and rectangles.  We used the little cubes to show where the angles are.
