Hello everyone, it’s great to see you again, we are so excited to show you everything we have been up to over this term.
Literacy
In grammar we have been taught about clauses. A clause is a group of words that includes a subject and a verb. They make up a sentence. There can be a main clause, coordinate clause or a subordinate clause.
In writing we wrote a persuasive letter to world leaders about COP26. We also did a letter to Bishop John Keenan for our confirmation, telling him why we chose our names and why it is important to us. We wrote an imaginative piece retelling the story of the lion, the witch and the wardrobe. We were describing the scenes in first person using our senses.
Maths
For maths the circles focused on collecting data using the range, the median, the mode and mean. The squares focused on angles using a protractor. The triangles were learning about time.
P.E
For P.E a man called Ricky came in. He is a marathon runner. He talked about how difficult it was running for 24 hours. He also gave us exercises. He was very inspirational. A group of pupils from our class were picked to be in St. Cadoc’s badminton team. They won their first cluster tournament and progressed to play in Barrhead Foundry against other schools in East Renfrewshire. They came 3rd!
Art
We designed Christmas ornaments for our school fair. We used lollipop sticks to create snowflakes and Christmas trees. We painted them and added jewels to make it nice and Christmassy. They were sold on Thursday. We have started to look at sketching and have started to draw a toucan.
