P4b

We can’t quite believe it’s the end of Term 3! We have had an amazing term filled with lots of learning and made more fantastic memories.

I liked making Viking artefacts out of clay and painting them when they were dry. Jessica

In the playroom we used playdoh to stretch, squeeze, push and pull which helped us learn forces. Cooper S

We did a fractions assessment and I liked it because we got to show what we had learned. Bella

I was very happy to see new Dog Man books in the library – I’ve read 4 already!! Ryan

I finished my library book and was happy because it was a good book. Finn

Fractions have been fun and each time we learnt about them we learnt even more. Poppy

I wish you all a restful and safe Spring Break and can’t wait to see you again for Term 4!

Lots of love Mrs Wightman

Primary 2a End of Term 3

Term 3 completed for P2a. It was a very long and busy term but the class worked extremely hard throughout.

The class learned all about money, they were working on their coin recognition, adding coins together and calculating change. They also done amazingly well during their data handling lessons, they used graphs and tally marks to help collate information. Most recently they learned about grid references which they done with great confidence.

P2a were incredible with their spelling this term, there was some excellent results in their spelling tests and it has helped improve their reading and writing. The class really enjoyed learning all the magic e sounds.

The pieces of writing produced this term were exceptional. After their hard work on setting writing the class completed a series of lessons on character writing. In these lessons the class planned and created their own monsters using amazing adjectives to describe them.

In the playroom the children loved learning about living things through the changes topic. They showed lots of great teamwork to create different art pieces and build magnificent structures.

This final week was full of Easter fun. The class created their own Easter bunnies and 3D Easter art.

P6a weekly update!

🔤Literacy – we continue to work hard on our reading. We have developed our skills in reciprocal reading and paired reading. We are becoming more confident when reading aloud. This week we have worked on our skimming and scanning skills as well as ensuring we answer questions in full sentences.

🔢Maths – this week we took our learning outdoors for some orienteering fun! We answered place value questions that were hidden around the playground. This was a lot of fun and everyone worked well!

🏃‍♀️🏃‍♂️PE – this week we took advantage of the nice weather and went to the pitch for our PE lessons. Continuing with our team work, we played games of rounders. What great sportsmanship we have in p6a.

 

P5a end of term

This week we finished off our decimals block in Maths, and news reports in Writing, all about a Tsumami. We have been finding out lots about the devastating Tsunami that hit Indonesia in 2004 and were able to report on this and the effects of it. We had our treat afternoon on Tuesday and have also been out planting seeds as we want to encourage nature in our grounds. Of course we also had some outdoor play in the sunshine too!
Happy Holidays!

Last Week of Term 3 – P1c

What an amazing term we have had in P1c. The children have all worked so hard and are making fantastic progress. This week the children have been learning all about Easter traditions. We have had lots of fun in our playroom consolidating literacy and numeracy learning with Easter/Spring play provisions. The children created fantastic ‘Wanted’ Posters searching for the Easter bunny. All children were able to successfully describe their character and use a connective to extend their writing. In Health and Wellbeing we have been learning about Growth Mindset and that mistakes can be marvellous. We also have enjoyed being outside in the Spring sunshine playing with all of the outdoor toys and resources. As always, I am incredibly proud of all the progress the children have made. Well done P1c, have a fantastic break!
