Today we started a new class novel called Holes. It’s a very unusual book. We wonder how the story will unfold!
We were also developing our knowledge of multiplication and division. We looked at the relationship between the numbers and how multiplication facts can help us with division facts.
Primary 6/7 worked on answering word problems using their place value skills.
After that we looked at items to include in our Agents of Rights Tool kit.
We thought about what each item could represent and how we can use them to show people how they help us remember our rights.
Today Primary 6/7 were developing their maths skill by working on numbers up to 10,000,000 After that the boys and girls were writing a story based on the Cool Class Cup treat yesterday. They had to imagine the next part of the story but were only allowed to use 100 words.
The children worked in teams again during outdoor PE. They had to repeat and recognise a pattern using cones and organise their team to achieve success.
Due to the Covid 19 pandemic it is impossible to have the usual Woodlands Meet the Teacher event. Instead I have made a short video telling you about some of the things we have been working in Primary 6/7B.
I hope you enjoy it.
At home children should try and read for at least 20 minutes each night. This will expose them to new vocabulary and new ideas. Furthermore logging on daily to Sumdog and playing the maths games will help them develop and apply their maths skills.
P6/7 enjoyed their cool class cup treat today.
Well done to YS, HM and AB on completing last weeks maths challenge. You three have earned an extra 200 Sumdog coins. Great effort and good accuracy. There is a now a new Sumdog challenge linked to our learning in class for you to try. Good luck!
Today we worked on our Power Maths books. We looked at the place value activities and applied the skills of partitioning, ordering and sorting numbers. Mr Green was very impressed!
Homework this week is a special task for the whole school. Each child has been given a hand print and on each finger the should write a word that describes themselves. The can write one word or a sentence and can draw themselves on the palm. This should be brought back to school on Monday 21st and in line with COVID procedures will be quarantined before being used to create a whole school display.
Today in maths we demonstrated how we can round a number to the nearest 10, the nearest 100 and the nearest 1000.
Today we described an underground train journey, using what we have learned about rhythm and rhyme. We then used the title ‘Above My Head’ as our inspiration for another piece of writing
Primary 6/7 enjoyed outdoor PE again today. Playing team games that involve fitness, strategy and teamwork.
Today we imagined that we were standing in a busy city, and using our prior knowledge from this week’s language lessons we had to visualise and describe what was beneath our feet.
Today we got to take part in Woodlands Primary Schools first virtual assembly. We listened to Mr Green, Miss Ferguson and Mrs Thomson. The class were delighted to win the first Cool Class Cup of the new school year.
Some fantastic work today with our handwriting joins. The children also analysed and explored our poetry book Underneath My Feet. Children identified rhyming patterns, discussed stanza structure and debated how certain words rhyme by considering different accents around the United Kingdom.
