Primary 4 Weekly Blog Thurs/Fri

A great end to our final week of Term 1!

In art we have been finishing off our beautiful collage sunflowers and we have also been working on some spooktacular spider webs now that we are well and truly in Spooky Season!

In maths we have been consolidating our data handling topic.

We have been writing some fabulous stories in our Free Writing Friday sessions- from character descriptions, fact files and epic adventure tales we have it all!

In PE and Loose Parts we have continued to work on our team building skills and really enjoyed working together whilst playing some ‘Cross the River.’

 

On a separate note I would like to say a huge thank you to P4 for such a lovely first term with them! I have really enjoyed being their teacher and a huge thank you for all of my lovely gifts and cards- it was so generous!

I hope everyone has a wonderful holidays!

Miss Purvis 🙂

Thursday/Friday

A good end to the week in P4 and the sun has even come out in time for the weekend!

In maths we were looking at probability with Miss Allan.

In health and wellbeing we have been looking at the power of ‘Yet’. We read ‘The Magical Yet.’ by Angela DiTerlizzi and discussed how just because we can’t do something at the moment, doesn’t mean we won’t ever be able to do it. We discussed how this ties into our Growth Mindset and being resilient in the face of obstacles and new things. We created our own Yet creatures and gave examples of how they can help us.

In art we have been looking at warm and cool colours. We created some fabulous grid painting of autumn trees using warm and cool colours to contrast.

In Loose Parts we were challenged to create a habitat for an animal ( real or imagined), tying into our IDL topic of Living/non living things.

Have a wonderful weekend in the sun!
