Literacy

In literacy this week we have been learning how to write an information text. To finish off our topic we wrote a piece on the Ancient Egyptians and how they lived. We made sure to use a formal tone and include lots of interesting detail.

In Maths this week we have been continuing with fractions. We learnt how to identify equivalent fractions and combined outdoor learning and maths to find fractions of an amount using natural materials.

In Art we have been looking at composition. We studied some fresh snowdrops and read some snowdrop stories as inspiration. We then created some beautiful still life snowdrop drawings using pastels.

In PE this week we have begun our gymnastics topic. We focussed on jumps, leaps and rolls. Miss Purvis was so impressed with the expert gymnast helpers in P4!
