P3a

P4 had our Class assembly on Burns Day. We told the story of Robert Burns and told some of his poems and heard some of his songs.
Finlay was Robert’s Dad and had to carry a spade to show that he was a gardner. We had lots of fun and our families came to see us.
I had fun because I had to carry a dragon.
At Scottish day I had to tell all our visitors what songs and poems my class had to sing and say. I felt very proud to do that. We sang 2 songs and said 2 poems. This is the first time I have done something at Scottish afternoon.

After we were on stage we went back to class and we had lots of scottish things to do. We got to taste haggis, dumpling, shortbread, pancakes,tablet and oatcakes with cheese. It was yummy. We had to butter our pancakes and oatcakes ourselves. I really liked this.

We have had a busy term so far.
We had our class assembly on the 25th of January. This is Burns day and our assembly was all about the life of Robert Burns. We all had a role to play and we had poems to say as well. Liam was Robert Burns and he had lots to do. He had to show his work as a farmer, as a poet and as a husband and father. He was very good. I was a reader and narrator.

On Scottish afternoon I was reciting the first verse of To a mouse by Robert Burns and everyone got to recite The Puddock by J.M.C and we also all sang Bonnie Wee Jeanie McCall and Three Craws. I was very nervous because my mum, my dad and my gran were watching me. We practiced very hard in class and we recited our poems and sang our songs every day.

Everyone was very good and I can’t wait till next year to do it again.

In our new term we are going to be very busy. We will be learning lots this term and we will have an extra teacher in class, she is called Miss Lawson and will be with us from the beginning of January until the middle of March.
In Language we are going to be learning some poems, songs and stories about Robert Burns. We will be learning to improve our Grammar skills and learning three new phonemes to help us read and spell harder words.
In Maths we are going to be learning all about symmetry and to get better at multiplying, our tables and to continue to work hard in our sums.
We are going to be learning all about Robert Burns; all about Myths and Legends from Scotland; and learning all about footwear. We will be making our own shoes in a topic called Soft Shoe Shuffle.
We will be getting extra lessons at PE time. We will have a tutor come into school to teach us about Badminton and will continue to look at our health. We will be making food this term, this will be part of our Scottish Month and we will be making some delicious Scottish foods.
We are looking forward to giving our class Assembly, this will be on the 25th Jan, which is the birthday of Robert Burns and we will use Burns as our subject. Come along to hear all about the most famous Scotsman ever.
