LEARNING REVIEW – 9th October

Numeracy – In numeracy we have been consolidating our learning from the term. We have participated in mental maths sessions to support with this and we have played some of the class consolidation games. We completed a short subtraction assessment at the start of the week to help us see what our targets are when we begin this after the holidays.

Maths – We continued with our directions focus. We were using the words ‘clockwise’ and ‘anticlockwise’ to describe turns and we began to develop our understanding of the number of degrees in specific turns.

Art – We have been using what we learned about warm and cold colours to design a new front cover for our ‘Holes’ Novel. We think these look really effective and are very proud of them!

Literacy (Writing) – Mrs Muir joined us for our writing session this week. We began to write our spooky story using the plans we made last week. Mrs Muir went around and asked us some questions about our learning. We will be continuing this story after the holidays.

Literacy (Grammar) – In grammar we were using the homophones ‘to, too and two’.
Literacy (Reading) – We took part in Scotland’s, ‘The Wee Read’ on Wednesday. We had a Mr Men focus and went to join P1/2 for a paired reading session. We chose a book in class and became confident at reading this before we went down their classroom. Mrs Beck was disappointed to have been absent for this. We then made our very own Mr Men books!
HWB – We were learning about why we celebrate, ‘Black History Month’ in October. We were learning about Rosa Parks this week and will continue to focus on this after the holidays.
I hope you all have a great October break and I look forward to seeing you all on our return!
