Pancake Tuesday
Before the beginning of lent, we made pancakes on shrove Tuesday. The children were able to work in groups and follow a recipe create a batch of pancakes. They were also a great help tidying the classroom afterwards.
Writing
Primary 6 have been working really hard on their writing recently. By creating a planning page and researching factual information they were able to create some fantastic reports about the Amazon Rainforest.
Author Visit Victoria Williamson
On Thursday Victoria Williamson visited Primary 6 and 7 to tell us about her new book The Boy with the Butterfly Mind. We discussed how to write an effective story by introducing the main characters and sequencing the events. We also got to take part in a science experient influenced by one of the main characters love of science. 🧪📕
We can’t wait to start reading this book in class! 😃
World Book Day
We had a visit from Mary from the foundary on World Book Day. The children enjoyed working out emoji puzzles to work out the title of each book and listening to a story. Mary gave the children some information regarding library memberships and taking out books. I would highly recommend that all children become members as there are a large range of books available at the foundary to take out and enjoy reading.
The children also enjoyed sharing their own favourite books with the class and discussing the genre and plot.
