November was a very busy month for primary 6/7a, our Primary 7’s spent a week away in Kilbowie with Miss McGuire and the Primary 6’s stayed here with Mrs Leblond and Miss Gallagher. The primary 7’s had a great time and enjoyed all the activities that we took part in, coasteering and gorge walking were our favourites. Primary 6’s did a lot of learning while we were away, they designed their own children’s hotel and learned about remembrance day too.

In literacy, we all started new novels. We are using 2 Cathy McPhail books, Mosi’s War and Tribes, we are really enjoying them so far and can’t wait to keep reading. In Maths, we have been doing written and mental addition and subtraction. We are getting much better at this but need lots of practise. We have loved learning about schools in the Victorian era, we were really surprised about the punishments they used to receive and are very grateful that they are no longer used in schools.

We have also been very busy working on businesses for Entrepreneur me. We enjoyed thinking about what we could sell and creating our business plans. We are ready to start making our products and can’t wait to sell them during the nativity shows in a few weeks.

We are looking forward to the month of December and all the Christmas activities that we have coming up.
