This morning we started off the day by reading our books for 15 minutes, then after that we did a BOGLF race (Buy One Get Lots Free). BOGLF is used when we know one sum and figure out lots of others by doing the same sum differently. e.g. 6+4=10 reverse 4+6=10 and 10x 60+40=100.We then did some maths worksheets.

Then after that we took notes on Emperor Penguins and made it into informative writing with VCOP

After lunch we went to assembly and listened to some songs

Then after that we voted on 3 tinfoil boats then we went on the daily mile to leave one boat to see if it sinks and it didn’t and it kept hold of around 50 rubbers!

Today when we came in, we did some maths. We were learning how to make calculations easier, and we learned a new thing what is called boglf. That means by doing a sum, and then making calculations out of it. You can have + – x and divide. You can have many answers just to one. Some people did some worksheets, when they were finished.

After we finished maths we went out for playtime. We came back in and went throw to p7s class, because some high school people came, in to  talk to us about text messages, and how it might hurt other, people of what you are saying.

After we came back into our class we did the daily mile.

After we did that it was luchtime. We came back in and we watched a very sad movie about penguins. We had to wright down notes while we we watching it.

Our tables got taken away for the Christmas fair so it looked like this.

Cooking slow cooker curry

Top tip for good cutting

• curl your fingers under
• never have flat fingers

That was the  peppers now here is the ginger

Now here is lots of vegetables getting cut 🌶

after the vegetables you need to add them to the slow cooker.

measure out the spices carefully.

After that add tomato purée, coconut milk and chicken stock.

then give it all a big stir and leave for 4 hours  stir it every hour.

Don’t open slow cookers all the time because the heat escapes.

Morning

When we came in, we started to warm up our brains,  by making as many words as we could from the letters on the smart board,  that the teacher made us before we came in.

Reading

After we did a warm up, we moved onto reading our book,  and we were learning, when we were reading to, read for an extended period of time, to understand what I am reading, to minimise distractions and to guess tricky words, so guess and then put it into the sentence to see if it still makes sense and if it does, then you have a 50 , 50 chance that it is correct.

After that we moved onto,  what is called a thinking routine, so that is when you go in pairs, and one person summarises the bit, they get told to, and then the other person , sits in silence, while listening, then when 1 minute is up then they switch so then the other person summarises it as well but it gets tricky, because they aren’t allowed to say what the first person said. ( you really have to think), if you are the second person because they might steal all the information you had.

After we finished that, we moved onto our class book,  what is Called Percy Jackson and the lighting thief.

After we did alot reading, we made 6 boxes on paper for a new thinking routine, what is called csi. That stands for colour (c), symbol (s), and image (i). When we did it, the other 3 boxes at the bottom was for, why because you had to explain why you picked it. We used our Percy Jackson book for this.

Daily mile

After we did a lot of reading and some work, we decided to cool of but also warming before we go for gym. Alot more people are running know because we are going to crush the other classes. (I can’t say anything we’re already winning by 1000.)

Gym

When we came back in, we got changed and went down. We were practising out new yoga pose of the week. It is when you do the splits in the air. Everybody did very good trying to. While we were doing the yoga pose,the teacher was setting out exercise to go around because it is called gym and we all want to be fit. (Instead of the lazy ones who lie in bed a day.)

After lunch

After lunch we did some maths. We were learning how to add and subtract. On the smart board was questions and we had to wright in our jotters, what is easiest, and work our way down to the hardiest.

Singing

After we did some maths, the other p7 came in our class to sing with us. We were learning how to sing without the words, and that every paragraph had a tune for the  2 first sentences but the last word in the sentence.

(e.g) brought, thought               Seen, bean               Hat, bat

Here is some pictures of some people singing.

Today we had our cool class cup treat after a few weeks of learning about fire safety!

Firstly, we cut kindling for the fire.

Then we lit the fires to heat the kettles.

We used our new Ghillie Kettles to make hot chocolate.

We also roasted marshmallows over a flame and made smores!

The children were extremely mature and focused and followed all of the fire safety rules to make sure that we were all safe.

Great job!

Tomorrow is the cool class cup treat – children need warm outdoor clothes and outdoor shoes!
