When we came in today we started off by doing just a little bit of maths. We had to do a time tables square and other times tables. Then when we finished we went to assembly. It was a house assembly. In assembly we did a quiz, songs, challenges, and news round. For the first bit we did a couple of songs, then we moved onto a quiz. You had to show your’e house captain either 1, 2, 3, or 4. It was really easy. It was miss cannon and miss livingstone against all the kids. In the quiz there was a couple of challenges, and some song challenges. The challenges were like drawing miss Ferguson, miss Thompson, and mr green, the triangle dance, and throwing bean bags in a bucket. The drawing challenge was for p4s, p5s and p6s singing challenges was for everybody in their houses, the bean bag challenge was for p1s and p2, and the triangle dance was for p6s and p7s. We all got a different challenge for all our classes. We had to work together as a team. 

When we came back in it was play time. It rang three bells so that means it is an indoor, but then we got told it was an outside play time. It was extra playtime as well but when it was extra playtime, we got sent back in because it started to rain again. 

When the teachers came back in we did some more maths. We did our proper maths this time because when we came in we did times tables to get our brain on. In maths we are learning to make it easier. We are working on graphs. We were trying to learn from our mistakes that we made yesterday to correct them for our graphs today. The teacher gives us a little bit of paper with numbers about how much people went to school. They were set up as a column of boys and a column of girls. We had to draw out the graph and then draw on the girls and boys. It sounded confusing for some people but then they realised that it is really easy. We had to use a ruler and put the numbers and letter ON THE LINE. When we finished we had to go and show the teacher and he will not let us go for lunch unless it is perfect, and he means perfect.

When we finished it was lunch time. It was an outdoor cause it was raining and there was puddles. They didn’t want any of the kids getting wet and sitting in it for the rest of the day. The buddies went down for their lunch and the other kids played on the computers. 

When the bell rang we came in and we started off by doing some reading. We read a couple of chapters of holes then we moved onto a debate. The teacher said if u want to do a debate you have to either do it about everything should be fair trade.

After that we moved onto health and well being (HAWB). We moved into drugs. The teacher wants us to know what can really hurt you, or what can make you sick. We had to write in our joggers what is legal and what is illegal. The teacher went through the full class and we had to add ideas. This is what we thought of,

Legal:

Steroids,

Alcohol,

Nicotine,

Paracetamol,

Sleeping tablets,

Laughing Gas

Antibiotics,

Opiates

That is what we thought was legal, and now this is what we thought was illegal:

Steroids.

Heroin,

Cocaine,

Crack,

Weed,

Meth.

Nicotine,

Alcohol,

Speed,

Ecstacy.

Ketamine,

ISD

That is what we thought was illegal. Then we moved onto True and False about drugs. We are learning about this because the teacher wants us to know About how to make sensible choices as we get older.

We then had to do our assessment. Our assessment was:

What were we learning ……….

I know I was successful…….. because ……….

A top tip I learnt from this piece of learning was…………….

My traffic light is………… because…………

Then we went to p7s for song practise.
