Today, we were learning about narrative poetry. We created our own characters and storyline and made up our rhyming stanzas. Miss Park was so impressed, we are going to re-draft and put up for display!

P5/6 began our topic of Scottish dance in PE today followed by a relaxing session in class practising our breathing and relaxation techniques whilst trying out different types of calming music. We then made a compliment circle and everyone had a smile on their face! πβ€οΈ
Wednesday 14th November
P5/6 had a very busy morning of different activities. Some of us were busy working hard practising our lines at Nativity practise, some of us were practising our spelling words using paint or hieroglyphics and some of us were creating posters to teach the rest of the class about Mummification.
Diwali
We have been learning about the Festival of Light, Diwali. We were looking at the traditions and designing and colouring rangoli patterns.
Remembrance Day β₯οΈ
We were learning about Remembrance Day on Friday.
We have created a class poppy wreath display, created some poems which some of us were so proud of, we have put them into our showcase jotters. We also created Poppy biscuits. We were focusing on having a role within our group, the importance of hygiene and listening carefully to instructions and following them.
Tutankhamun β οΈ
We have been looking at different sources of evidence including photographs, quotes and newspaper reports to learn about the discovery of Tutankhamunβs tomb. We have created diaries from the perspective of Howard Carter.
P5/6 Yoga π§ββοΈπ§ββοΈ πͺ
P5/6 have began our new topic of Yoga and movement. We acted out how little red riding hood characters would walk, feel and be protraying themselves. We also began our breathing techniques and yoga pose which we re-called the wolf.
Reading Buddies
On Friday, we were practising reading with fluency and expression to engage our P2/3 listeners. We really enjoyed being the teacher and reading to the little ones. Some of them even showed us their reading skills! We were very impressed!
Halloween Creativity!
Last week, we were learning to blend and fade colours together to make a colourful Halloween picture. We were using our cutting skills to create Halloween pictures.
In ICT we were practising our finger placements and touch typing to type up our individual Halloween stories to create and publishΒ our class Halloween book.
Halloween Poems πππ·οΈ
Yesterday we were writing our Halloween poems. We had the option of either a rhyme, haiku or acrostic poems.
A rhyme is a multi stanza poem that rhymes. A haiku is a three-lined poem where each line has a different amount of syllables. The first line has 5, the second has 7, and the third has 5. An acrostic poem goes down. E.g.
Spooked
Creepy
A lot of decorations
Running in fear
You may be scarred
