We are the new Primary 5. Our teacher is Miss McGregor. Mrs McIntyre takes our class on a Friday. This term our topic is Our Body. We have been doing a lot of co operative learning on this topic as we learn to work together effectively.
In taught writing lessons, we have written reports about bones and the senses. We know that we need to include a heading, an introduction, subheadings and diagrams in a good report.
In active literacy we have all been learning to use our reading strategies effectively whilst reading a novel as a class called – The Iron Man. We find inferencing the trickiest skill, but we will keep practising. This week we started our own group novels.
In Maths we have been continuing to build on our knowledge of place value and consolidating our addition and subtraction skills. We have also been revising our bonds to 100 and linking our addition and subtraction facts. We are also currently working on the properties of 3D objects and will move onto 2D shape followed by symmetry. Mrs McIntyre and Miss McGregor are very pleased with our progress so far.
