Week 13 Learning 13th-17th November

This week we have been reading lots of books as it is Book Week Scotland.  We redesigned the front cover of our  favourite book, we went to the school library to get a book to borrow and yesterday we shared our favourite book to the class.  People asked us questions about our book and switched books to have a wee read.

Book Bingo was fun because we got to learn about other peoples books.

This week we revealed our mummified apples.   Two weeks ago we carved out a face, and put them in a cup covered with salt and baking soda.   Today we noticed that the water/ juice had come out and they had gone rotten.  One of the apples looked better as that was only covered in salt.
We know the Egyptians mummified apple to keep the to look like themselves in the afterlife.

Week 12 Learning (WB 6th November)

During assembly on Wednesday, Primary 5 shared 2 of their Make your Mark experiences with the whole school.  Abiela and Logan from p5a spoke about when we made smoothies. Anas and Hawaa from our class presented about Pond Dipping.  Our presenters were fabulous!  P5 were fantastic audience members encouraging and supporting their classmates who were bravely leading the presentation.

We recapped the names of angles during our maths lesson on Tuesday with this fun song! It’s so catchy the song has been stuck in Mrs Sutherland’s head all week!!

In French this week we enjoyed playing a game of ‘Jacque A Dit’ (Simon Says).  It was a fun way of testing our knowledge of french body parts!  Ask us how to play at home and see how well we do!!

Our focus in PE is Scottish Ceilidh dancing in preparation for our next Make your Mark learning experience.  We had fun learning the Virginia Reel! It was tricky to keep in time with the music but we know we will be experts soon!

It is Book Week Scotland next week, children are welcome to bring in their favourite book to read and talk about in class! 📚❤️

Have a good weekend,

Mrs Sutherland.

Week 8 WB 9th October.

We have had a busy week in class this week.

During Forest School, we were learning how to build a fire.  We learned that we need tinder, kindling, and firewood.  We got to practice setting up the wood ready to create our own campfire creating a ‘teepee’ type or a ‘jenga’ type.  We are looking forward to lighting a fire and toasting marshmallows next time we are in the forest.

During PE, we have been working on different exercises to build up our stamina and fitness.
