Monday
At the start of the day Miss McGregor told us that our class will be having the I-pads for 3 weeks. On the I-pads we played spelling city for literacy. We looked at Non-fiction and Fiction books. We looked at the differences between both types of books. In maths we looked at the weights of different objects such as polo mints and hand cream, we had to estimate the weights and then weigh each item using scales. We got to feel the weight of a kilogram, which is a bag of sugar.
Tuesday
At the start of the day we went to stage assembly and told Mrs Woodward our opinion of our school. For Literacy we looked ay Non-fiction books again. We looked at the definition of a dictionary, thesaurus, index page, glossary and a contents page. In the afternoon we had Royal Rockstars and they taught us 2 songs one called ‘Don’t give up’ and one called ‘Glad to be me’. Andy taught us the actions to the songs.
Wednesday

For maths we finished weight and we looked at or new topic time.
In the afternoon we had our last practice of Royal Rockstars before we make our CD tomorrow. It is going to sound great.
Friday
On Friday morning we were looking at punctuation with Mrs McIntyre, we identified different parts of punctuation from a text.
Primary 3 performed their assembly for the whole school, it was on their Scottish topic and it was really interesting.
We also were working on speech marks and we learned that you take a new line when a new speaker comes.
In Kodally we played a game called cut the cake where we were in teams and we had to collect as many beanbags and balls as we could.
After lunch we had Royal Rockstars and we recorded our CD. The Royal Rockstars said we were great and very clear and we finished the CD very quickly.
It sounds like you have had a busy week with the Royal Rockstars. Your concert was brilliant! It is great to read about all the different things you are doing and how much you are learning.
