Primary 6 Termly Reflection Term 1<\/u><\/strong><\/p>\n

Talk for Writing <\/u><\/strong><\/p>\n

During term one P6 focused on recount and instructional writing by using the Talk for Writing approach. The children learnt how to create story maps to retell the tale of The Enormous Pumpkin. The children also learnt how to write a set of instructions about trapping a mythical creature. The highlight of the writing block was our celebration event. The class were delighted when they were given the opportunity to share their writing with children in the upper stages. The event was a great success as it showcased how proud the children were of their efforts and enabled them to share the progress they had made since the onset of the writing block with their peers.<\/p>\n

Expressive Arts <\/u><\/strong><\/p>\n

Another of our highlights from term one was creating artwork inspired by Pablo Picasso. The children especially enjoyed creating their own portraits which was inspired by Picasso\u2019s Cubist style.<\/p>\n

The children will be working in small working groups during weekly Guided Reading lessons. During these sessions the children will continue to develop their knowledge and understanding of the different reading strategies. Our class novel this term is The Witches by Roald Dahl. The children have engaged well during whole class discussions about the text and have enjoyed opportunities to discuss the characters and themes. They are looking forward to finding out what happens to the main character as the plot develops.<\/p>\n","protected":false},"excerpt":{"rendered":"
