We are a happy class because we have started our first couple of weeks in Primary 7. It is our last year in St Cadoc’s so we want to make it the best yet.
We were very happy to come back to the news that life in school was a bit more normal. The thing we liked best was being able to play in the playground with our full year group.
In Maths, we started by looking at our presentation and ensuring we had the best layout. We revised setting out multiplication, division, addition and subtraction calculations. Some of our favourite Maths times have been playing some games like ‘Battle of the Giants’, ‘Around the World’ and ‘Popcorn’.
In Literacy, we have been looking at creating some interesting writing pieces about our hopes for Primary 7 and a piece about ourselves. We have also been revising spelling words and working on creating detailed sentences.
We had lots of discussion about a Growth Mindset and what this meant to us. Some of us said we had a growth mindset but some of us felt that we did not have one yet but we were going to tr and develop it and believe in ourselves a little more.
We have also chosen our first topic by voting for a country that we wanted to find more about. The class voted for the USA. We created a mind map about the things we already know and the things we want to find out about.
The first couple of weeks back have been great and we are looking forward to all the opportunities to come.
