On Monday it was St Andrew’s Day. We wore tartan or the colours of the Scottish flag to celebrate. We learned about St Andrew and why he is the patron saint of Scotland. We asked questions, researched, made fact files and played a quiz. Here are some pictures of us enjoying our work.
Today P5/6/7 followed in the footsteps of David Attenborough and went outside to observe the living things that are all around us. We each found our own spot, kept as quiet and as still as possible and watched and listened carefully to see what living things we could discover. We took notes and pictures of what we observed and reported back to the rest of the class.
Room 4 would like to say a great big huge WELCOME BACK!
We are really enjoying being back at school and would like to share some of the things we have been doing and learning.
Health & Wellbeing
By Lana-Rose and Ava
We have been talking about our feelings about lockdown and covid 19 it’s important right now and a really big deal. In this photo are some pictures we made about our feelings ‘Inside Out’.
French 🇫🇷
By Ainsley and Kyle
Bonjour Queenzieburn, Room 4 has been Learning French. We have learned Questions, Colours and Numbers. Q’est le colour prefere? Mine is Rouge. We have also learned colours 1-10 in French and here are our French Colour Sheets.
David Attenborough
By Ava and Lana-Rose
We have been learning about David Attenborough. We researched cool facts about him on the internet and took notes. Then chose how to present our work. Some people wrote with pencil and paper and wrote key notes or notes on the iPads.
It is really fun learning about David Attenborough. Did you know he is the same age as the Queen?
Cursive Handwriting
By Riley And Tyler
Room 4 has been learning cursive handwriting. Cursive handwriting is when you can join letters together to make it more neat but you need to flick into the joins. Once we get used to cursive handwriting we will be able to write much faster and it will look fancy and more grown up.
Classroom Economy
By Harley and Brooke
Our class is doing something called a Classroom Economy. Everyone has a job. We have police officers and bankers and many more jobs. Every month we get paid for our jobs but we also have to pay rent for our chairs and desks each month which costs £1000. If we don’t have enough to pay we can get a loan from the bank. We can earn more money from bonuses but we can also lose money if we break the rules and get a fine. We like earning lots of money and getting good at counting it and thinking about what jobs we could do in the future.
Handball
By Sam and Nathan
Our class is learning to play handball for PE. We have been playing matches and it is fun. It’s called handball because the ball is small enough to fit in your hands and you pass the the ball with your hands only. There are lots of ways to pass, the bounce pass, the overarm ‘high’ pass, the flick pass and the chest pass. It is a really fast pace game and we love it!
Art
By Lyle and CJ
P5/6/7 has been learning how to do 3D letters with one point of perspective. Perspective means make things look 3D by going back into the distance.
How to do it- Draw a dot near the top of the paper. This dot is your point of perspective. From the point take a ruler and draw a line to the corners of each letter in your name. Then draw a horizontal lines in the middle between the parallel lines. Rub out the remaining lines to make your letters look 3D.
The background- We cut out shapes on paper and stuck them on the page. We drew lines with a ruler from the corners of the shape to the point of perspective the we used a dark pen to shade the shapes and outline of the letters. We then picked a colour we had not already used to colour the background.
Glow/Teams
By Tyler And Riley
Glow is a online site to help us teach and learn online. Some of us used it during lockdown and learned on glow. Right now we are learning how to get better at glow.
Teams is a way to communicate with our class and teacher. If we went into lockdown again we could get work from Teams or work together on Teams. We are having fun learning how to use it and are getting better at it.
Angles, Directions and Coordinates. Ainsley and Kyle
Hello Queenzieburn,
Room 4 have been Learning Angles, Coordinates and Directions with our new teacher Mrs. Meechan. We have been learning North, East, South, West. We made up a game where people stand on a grid and somebody tells them to go a direction and last man standing on the grid wins! We have also learned about Right Angles and made these little Pac-Men that help us find Right Angles.
Hello Room 4,
Woohoo! You have made it to your last few days of term before the summer holiday officially begins. Today is our virtual sports day and everyone in your family can take part. You could also win £50 of sports equipment for our school. All of the events look great fun and I hope that you enjoy it!
A huge well done to Rose and Riley for their work on Sumdog! They hit the top spot for the second week in a row. Rose spent the most time on Sumdog and Riley had the most correct answers overall. Both of them won the 200 coins reward. Also a great big well done also goes to Thomas who has been rewarded with 100 points for being the most improved student last week.
Rose has earned a Star Writer certificate this week for the wonderful adventure story she has created called ‘Tartan Dragons’.
On behalf of everyone at Chapelgreen, I would like to say goodbye to all of our wonderful P7 pupils! They are hardworking, kind, caring and have been good friends and role models to the rest of the school. We will miss each of them and wish them all the best for starting secondary school.
To the rest of Room 4, I really look forward to seeing you all back in school after the summer when you will become our new P5s, P6s and P7s. Have a brilliant holiday everyone!
Take care and stay safe.
Love from,
Miss Richardson

Hello Room 4,
I hope that you are all doing well. This is the last full week before summer holidays, can you believe it? And it is the last week for you to send in your farewell yearbook messages to your friends the P7s. If you haven’t written yours, please send them to me as soon as possible. Remember that this is our special gift to them especially as, at the moment, we cannot see them in person to say goodbye.
A huge well done to Rose and Riley for their work on Sumdog last week! Rose spent the most time on Sumdog and Riley had the most correct answers overall. Both of them have won the 200 coins reward. I wonder who will get the 200 coins reward this coming week?

Hello Room 4,
I hope that you are all doing well. You’ll remember that last week I set you a special task to write the P7s a farewell message? Well I want to say a HUGE thank you to the children that sent me in their messages. They were fabulous and they made me smile. I just know that the P7s will love them! If you haven’t written yours yet, that’s okay but please send them to me this week. P7s, you also need to write some for each other too.

Hello Room 4,
I hope that you are all doing well. Thank you to all of you who have sent me your work. I am always so happy to hear from you and see what you have been learning. Well done to Lea for her book review on Artemis Fowl, it was great. I am sure you’ll inspire others to read it too. Well done to Kyle, Lana-Rose and Nathan who showed me their work in spelling and maths. What a fabulous job you’re doing. Keep it up!
A huge well done to Rose and Ainsley for their work on Sumdog last week! Ainsley had the most correct answers overall and Rose spent the most time on Sumdog. They have been rewarded with 200 coins each. I wonder who will get the 200 coins reward for this week?

I also want to give a Star Writer certificate to Rose for her wonderful story called The Robin, The Wind and The Raven. Make sure you have a tissue at the ready for the ending.
I have a very important and very special task for the whole class this week. As you know it is coming up to the end of the school year. Normally at this time of year the P7 children would be making their year books and we would be writing comments in the back. This year things are different but I would still like them to have a keepsake reminding them of their time at Chapelgreen and our class. I would like you to please write a short message or letter to each of our wonderful P7s sharing your memories of them, saying goodbye and wishing them good luck for the future (any drawings or pictures would be welcome too). I will combine these to create a lovely gift for each of them to remember us by.
Have a great week everybody! I look forward messages for the P7s.
Love from,
Miss Richardson

Hello Room 4,
I hope that you are all doing well and that you enjoyed the holiday weekend.
Well done to everyone who sent in their lovely posters saying hello and all of the things they are grateful for. I absolutely loved watching the video, it made me feel really happy. I can’t believe how much some of you have grown since I last saw you! Also, a huge thank you to those children who sent me letters last week. I was so delighted to receive them and I really enjoyed writing back to you too.

Hello Room 4,
I hope that you and your families are doing well. I think of you all everyday and wonder how you are doing. Last week I asked you to write me a letter and share some of your news with me. I want to say a big thank you to Riley who wrote me a wonderful letter filling me in on all his news. It made me so happy to hear from him and I cannot wait to write back to him this week. I’d be delighted to hear from more of you this week.
A huge well done to Lea for her work on Sumdog last week! She had the most correct answers overall and she spent the most time on Sumdog. She has been rewarded with 200 coins. I wonder who will get the 200 coins reward this week?
Our class is part of the NLC Sumdog competition which started last Friday. We always do really well on at the NLC competitions because we work as a team and we can still do this even though you are at home. All you have to do is spend at least 20 minutes playing games on Sumdog each day. There are a lot of sums to answer but remember it’s not about the how many sums you answer it’s about the accuracy of what you answer, so take your time. Come on Room 4 let’s see how well we can do! I will be on Sumdog every day this week at 1 o’clock if anyone wants to play me.
Here are your tasks for this week.
