This week Primary Four were able to take advantage of the (brief) appearance of the sun to take their learning outside. We were learning to use our notes to create poetry while describing the features of our landscape.
We used four of our senses to consider the trees in our school playground. We listened to the trees in the wind, we saw moss grow on the side of the trees and new buds growing, we smelt the leaves, and we touched the bark. We took notes to describe how we experienced the trees through each of these senses.
Today we were taking notes on Tutankhamun using various sources and we had to organise them under appropriate headings.
‘When we were doing our Tutankhamun research we used books, websites and videos’ Summer
‘We learned lots including that Tutankhamun ruled for a short time in Ancient Egypt’ Aoife
‘Next week we will use our notes to create a new text (factfile)’ Abbie
We have been learning to tell the difference between questions and statements using our ‘Show Me’ boards!
‘A question is asking something and can be answered.’ Ava R
‘A question has a question mark at the end.’ Boid
‘Some question words are what, are, can, how, where, when and why.’ Aiden Jessica Boid Emma
‘A statement tells you something’ Antony
