This week in p6a!
What a busy week we have had in p6a!
Literacy – We enjoyed working on Digital Film Literacy tasks this week. We focussed on a short clip from the movie ‘The Corpse Bride’ and used our knowledge and understanding of character, setting and photography to help us analyse what was happening. This was a movie most of us had never seen but now want to!
Reading – We have all worked really hard in reading this week using our skimming and scanning skills to help us find relevant information.
Maths – In maths, we have been revising division strategies! we have found this concept quite tricky at times but we have all shown great perseverance. We also began work on money this week!

This is an exclusive event for families at Wallacewell Primary School. Similar events are being held locally by Parks for People for other local residents.

Photography
Our first IDL block this term is focussing on photography. We have been working on our camera skills, looking at different angles and shots.
We took what we learned outdoors, and were very creative in our work. Look at some of the fantastic pictures we took on our iPads! I think we have some budding photographers in p6a!
