We had another trip to the library, luckily this time it was dry for our walk! We got to choose books to take away and read and we also had the opportunity to explore non fiction books related to our Rainforest topic and participate in some rainforest activities.

We have been playing fun games in PE  to help our communication and cooperation, and using our imaginations for free play outside.

p6a had a great 2nd day at Pinkston! Team games in the forest , working on our cooperation and resilience , as well as communication and listening skills, and LOTS of problem solving! On the water we were kayaking, while playing ball games and races! It was wet but fun!

The Rookie Rockstars Concert on Tuesday and Thursday evening was a great success.  Two pupils from P5a won a prize for designing a T- shirt. Ollie and Mannat are very creative pupils. This has certainly been a very creative week.

This week P5a have enjoyed using their creativity skills making structures and a marble run. In between showers we were able to continue to develop running skills involving sprinting techniques and passing the baton. They all have enjoyed learning throughout the week. Let’s hope the weather is kind to us next week.

This week the children have been very busy rehearsing and performing in the Rookie Rockstar Show. All the children had a fabulous time becoming real rockstars this week. In maths the children have been learning to identify the fraction in different shapes. We used the blocks to help us visualise our learning.

For our new Toy topic the children have been learning about different forces and friction, we explored this concept by playing with toy cars and experiementing with different surfaces.

We will be turning into toy designers next week, and to help the children warm up their design knowledge they were challenged to create a new brand of bottled water. The children loved choosing which one they would pay for in real life.

To end the week the children completed short talks about their favourite toys then during our Fun 31 time the children enjoyed playing with all their toys!

This week P5 have been busy revising the 4 operations in Number and learning to write a detailed piece of writing involving describing how to make an ice cream sundae . We all wanted to have an ice cream by the end of the lesson.

The whole school have been preparing for the Rookie Rockstar Concert next week and some of the class are quite excited about it.
Sports Day is on Monday and everyone needs to bring a P.E kit . Hopefully 🤞 the weather will be fine and we will all have a great day.
