P5

Here is the home work for the next two weeks.

 

You wrote your phonemes on the sheet as appropriate for your group.

Blue – j phoneme words (j, ge, dge)

Red – oo phoneme words (oo, u-e, ew, ue, u)

 

Remember to try hard with your presentation in your jotters.  Each piece of work should have date and a title.  It looks really good if you underline these with a ruler.

 

Ask an adult to sign each piece of homework you do.

Today we used the handbell to play along to Auld Lang Syne on ABC music.  We had to ring our bell at the correct time in each bar. Look at our video

 

Our new topic is Glasgow.  Today we looked at the Coat of Arms and found out what each part of it represents.

 

There are 5 main parts to the coat of arms.

They are:

The bird that never flew

The tree that never grew

The fish that never swam

The bell that never rang

St Mungo is the man at the top of the coat of arms.

St Mungo is the patron saint  of Glasgow.The tree, bird, fish and bell represent the 4 miracles that St Mungo performed in Glasgow.

Matthew – I enjoyed finding out the facts and creating a poster.

Angus – I enjoyed working with my partner on this task.

Grace – I enjoyed finding out things about Glasgow I didn’t know.

 

 

Here is the homework for the next two weeks.

Remember what we discussed today about presentation:

– Give every piece of work a date and title.

– Use a ruler to underline the date and title.

– Draw a line under a piece of work before starting a new piece of work.

(These are all rules we have in class for presentation too.)

– Ask an adult to sign each piece of work to show they have seen it.

Do your best work!

You had toys like marbles but no x boxes!

There were lots of people who worked in mines, even children.

We did some coding on the computers today.  Most of us chose to do a Minecraft game.  There were also other games such as Frozen and Star Wars.  We had to make lists of commands to make the characters do things like destroy blocks or shear sheep.  On the Star Wars one there were different headings of commands which made different things happen.

Each level got harder and some were timed.  Some of us made loop commands to make the characters do the same thing over and over again.  The blocks of code sometimes had options so you could chose which items you were going to place.

Matthew- I enjoyed getting the different objects and using commands.

Liam – I enjoyed the graphics

Jordan – I enjoyed working through the different levels.

Bethany – Ienjoyed it when it got harder!

Kali – I liked how it got harder each level.

Lewis – I enjoyed working out which way you had to go.

Jake – I enjoyed that when it got harder there were new obstacles to beat.
