Welcome to our Reflective Friday post for the month of October. We have been learning lots and having a great time in the lead up to our Halloween celebrations.<\/p>\n

Literacy<\/p>\n

We have been looking at the area of report writing with a focus on newspaper reports this month. We looked at the importance of headlines as well as the use of paragraphs in order to present facts clearly and in a way that would capture the readers’ attention. We have continued our ongoing work on accurate spelling, grammar and presentation as well as working hard to improve our reading fluency. Our novel is Tilly and the Badgers which has made us think a lot about animal cruelty and the theme of badger baiting in particular.<\/p>\n

Numeracy<\/p>\n

We have been reinforcing our understanding of place value and using this effectively in our estimation and rounding work. In our ICT time we have also worked with top marks to increase our mental agility and enable us to explain our thinking in number talks. We are completing speed sums tasks on a regular basis for this purpose also.<\/p>\n

ICT<\/p>\n

In ICT we are learning how to join a teams meeting on Microsoft teams. This is really useful in case we need to self isolate but also it is a skill we will need in the world of work. We are making sure that everyone can send emails properly and Miss Glavin is setting our homework on the school website under the P5 class tab. That is where you will find your work if you are isolating too.<\/p>\n

RE<\/p>\n

In RE we have been learning about St Mungo and discovering many interesting facts. October was also the month of Our Lady and we remembered her when we prayed the Rosary.<\/p>\n

IDL<\/p>\n

Our topic is scottish inventors and we have enjoyed learning about Alexander Fleming and\u00a0 Alexander Graham Bell so far. In art we have been doing Steven Brown highland McCoo pictures and they are fantastic. It is great to learn about the work of a scottish artist.<\/p>\n

HWB<\/p>\n

We have been enjoying outdoor PE\u00a0 with a focus on stamina and agility. This has involved regular running sessions\u00a0 and using an obstacle course approach to increase our fitness.<\/p>\n
