Typing Stories.

The boys and girls in primary four wrote a two part story with the title “On the Titanic” during their taught writing sessions the last few weeks. Today they were given the opportunity to type them up to create a book with all their stories.

 

Debating in P4.

The children have learned so much about The Titanic and used their knowledge to have a debate about who they feel was to blame for the collision. They were so passionate about their opinions and were able to justify why they felt the way they did. We used our smart board to help us keep to the point of our arguments and have been using lots of technology over the course of digital learning week as well. It has been a busy two days in primary four.
