Literacy & English
Primary 4 and 5 have begun working on Phoneme Families where we use diacritical marking to show our understanding of phonemes (sounds) and the different representions we find in our vocabulary.
We can also use short and tall diagonal joins now to do fancy handwriting – we are on the right track with linking this into our phonemes, common tricky words and spelling rules.
DIACRITICAL MARKING, ELKONIN BOXES & ICT SPELLING!

SCIENCE & HWB
Germs! Germs! Germs!
When we were reading our Horrid Henry novel we found a tricky word … contagious! We used metalinguistic strategies ‘read on’ and ‘read back’ to find the meaning of it. We learned it means catchable germs! Here we are in science learning about how germs (glitter) are spread through contact and how tricky they are to wash off!
HWB: PE
Hockey skills in PE
We warm up for three main reasons:
- to get our muscles ready for physical activity
- to prevent injuring or hurting ourselves
- to increase our heart rate to supply oxygen to our muscles
Check us out!
We can hold the hockey stick correctly for pushing and stopping the ball. We can push the ball accurately. We can stop and control the ball.
