We were lucky today to be visited by the Rights Respecting Group who delivered an input on Refugee Week 2024.
Euros
Primary 4b thoroughly enjoyed taking part in a mini Euros tournament on Friday!
Narrative Writing
Today Primary 4b worked in groups to create the complication part of their story. I was so impressed with the collaboration in each group and adventurous language used in their writing. I am really looking forward to reading the resolutions!
Past, Present and Future Tense
Primary 4b worked with a partner today to identify verbs and sort sentences into past, present or future tense.
Life on Land
To conclude our recent class topic ‘Global Goal 15: Life on Land’, the children have been busy creating habitats out of cardboard using the make-do kits and then decorating with paint. They are now currently in the process of creating scripts which will be used when they create their stop motion films to inform others about each habitat.
Probability
Continuing on with the Euro 2024 theme, today we looked at the language of probability in Maths. Whilst most people could agree on impossible, likely or certain events, there were a few tense conversations about the probability of Scotland winning the Euros!
Euro 2024
Primary 4b are getting excited about the start of the Euro 2024 competition this Friday. We started off the day discussing the preparation and dedication required to be a footballer. We took part in circuit training during PE then practised our ball skills before taking part in football games. Well done to the yellow and red winning teams!
During Literacy, we learned about different countries that take part in the Euros and created fact files to share with each other.
Trip Budgeting
Primary 4b have been working hard all week to plan a class trip. Each group were given a £900 budget and asked to calculate the total each trip would cost. Each group applied addition, subtraction, multiplication and division strategies to calculate totals and budget remaining.
Music
Today in Music, Primary 4b composed their own rhymes. Well done everyone! I was so impressed with the creativity and I can’t wait to hear you perform these rhymes in 2 weeks
Money, Money, Money!
Today Primary 4b enjoyed applying their recent learning to real life practical tasks. The children spent time working within budgets to identify what they could purchase from different supermarkets, restaurants and take away shops. Well done, everyone!
