Reading

Over the next few weeks, were are practicing and developing our ability to give our opinion about what we have read/watched and to justify it.

For reading we have to read up to the following pages before Monday:

Highwayman’s footsteps – 252

Elephant in Garden – 184

Hundred Mile an Hour Dog – 25

After you have read a section of the book, evaluate what has happened.

• Did you think it was interesting? Why?
• Did you agree with what the characters did? Why?
• What did you like/dislike about the way it was written? Why?
• Do you think the story could have gone in a different direction? What would have been better?

Use evidence from the text to help justify what you think.

Maths

We are learning about stocks and shares. We have created an account on the website fantasystockexchange.com and set up a league for the Primary 7s.

Go on  to the website and show someone at home how it works. Keep checking your investments everyday and see how they have changed!

Today we were creating a piece of recount writing. We were including linking words, past tense verbs, topic specific words, headings, chronological order, paragraphs and brackets.
