Healthy snacks on health week!

 

On Wednesday we made a ladybird oat cake and we also made an apple skewer and we decorated it with icing. The ingredients where oat cakes, cherry tomatoes and purple grapes. For the apple skewer we put six green grapes on it. By Peyton.

I mostly enjoyed the oat cake. It was really fun making the stuff and trying it. – Peyton

It was good but I enjoyed the skewer better. – Lewis

It was fun and I enjoyed all of it.-Erin K

I liked the skewers but didn’t really like the tomatoes or the oat cakes. – Ethan

On Tuesday we visited Stirling castle. We had a great time and learnt loads about it. Here are some of the things the children wanted to share.

The castle was quite hilly. – Erin U

The castle was much bigger than what I expected. – Erin K

Stirling castle was built on top of a volcano. – Aaron

We found out that only the royal family were allowed to wear purple. – Noah

If you looked at the view from the castle you could see the Wallace Monument. – Eilidh

I liked it when the knight showed us all the armour and weapons. – Amy

My favourite part was when we got to dress up and act. – Elli

I saw a lot more than I thought I was going to. – Ayva

Fractions

We want to share everything we know about fractions!

We can find fractions on a number line. Elli

We know that the denominator goes at the bottom and the numerator goes at the top. Eilidh

We know that the denominator is how many we have in total. Klea

We know that the numerator is how many pieces you have taken. Michael

We know that 2/4 is the same as 1/2. Noah

We have enjoyed learning about fractions and have learnt lots of new information. We enjoyed working on stations and using some ICT equipment.

Primary 4 🙂

P4 Judo

On Tuesday morning we were lucky to have a visitor during our gym time to teach us some things about Judo.

Holly, David and Erin K got flipped!!

We played on the mat with a rope and were trying to push people out of rope circle, first person to push the other person outside the rope was the winner.

We learnt the words for ‘go’ and ‘stop’ they were Hajime for go and Matte for stop.

We really enjoyed the lesson and would love to do it again!

New term in Primary 4

Since we have come back from the Christmas holidays we have been very busy on our first week back.

In literacy we are working on a new phoneme ‘oo’. We have been searching for different words with the ‘oo’ sound in them for example football. We have been working on a non-fiction block and have been learning the differences between non-fiction and fiction books.

In numeracy this week we have been working on division, we are getting so good at division we are now on division with remainders.

Our new topic for this term is Charles Rennie Mackintosh we are very excited to get started and find out lots about him and his work.

Miss O’Neil and Primary 4 🙂

Fun activities happening in P4

In literacy we done a newspaper article, we could pick either tornadoes or hurricanes. A lot of people chose tornadoes. We got to add some pictures to our work. We used a headline, a lead, a main body and a tail to help us structure our newspaper report.

In numeracy we have been learning our 4 times table and are moving on to our 6 and 9 times table. We have been working on multiplication and division and are all working very hard.

We have been working on some Christmas art work and have made some Grinch faces and reindeer faces. We used paper plates, coloured paper,  black pens, green and brown paint, brown paper, red pom pom and googly eyes. We all enjoyed this activity and have used our work to decorate the class!

From all of Primary 4 and Miss O’Neil 🙂
