When we came in today we started off by doing some morse codes. Morse codes are little lines and dots, we had to work out, but we had a sheet that tells us what is what. It doesn’t tell us what it says it just shows the letter and the code beside the letter. The teacher made one up and put it on the chalkboard. It was really fun working it all out.

After morse codes we did our reading. We got questions and we had to read our book to the page we are meant to be at. There is 3 groups. Nouns, verbs and commas. We all got to play Sumdog, but we  had to go on reading or spelling.

After reading it was playtime. It was an outdoor. There was lots of worms out and it was disgusting.

After playtime it was time for the daily mile. The teacher wants our hearts rate beating when we come back into class so we had to go fast.

After the daily mile, science people came in from the high school. They talked to us about an up coming science fair and if u were interested you had to bring a leaflet home. They were also talking about them, why they are here, and how many schools he have been to.

When the science people left, we did some maths. We are learning to know times table, but in a different way. The circles are learning the 18 times table so instead of doing the 18 just do e.g 9 x 3 = 27 just double it so it will be 54. There is your answer.

After maths it was lunch time. It was an outdoor again. 😀

When we came back in, we watched a video about space. After we started our space rocket. First we had to finish our booklet, then draw what it should look like. When we finished that we had to go to Mr Mcmullan’s office and tell him the instructions on how we are going to make it.

When we finished painting it we had to put it on the table so it will dry and they will do more c coats tomorrow because we want the bottle to be fully covered.

This is what it looked like after when we painted the bottle!

After doing a fun activity it was home time.

 

Here are some videos of the test flights for our rockets.

When we came in we had to find a partner, while one person thinks of sentences with homophones in it and when the person is reading out the sentence, the other person is thinking what the homophone is. If u don’t know what a homophone is it is two words that sound the same but spelled differently. We only did that for 15 minutes.

After that we had a house assembly. We watched news round, listened to mr green telling us important information about the school and we got in our camp fires. If you don’t know what that is, it is when we get in a circle in our groups and mr green ask us questions and then we have turns answering them.

After assembly we went out for the daily mile. We went out for the daily mile to help us develop our fitness.

After the daily mile it was break time. It was an outdoor.

When we came back in we started by doing some maths. We are learning about multiplying, dividing, prime numbers, factors, lowest common multiple and what the meaning of the words mean. We have 3 groups. The teacher gave the cuboids a work bookto do and then when they where finished, they were meant to go on sumdog and do their assement. The circles went down and they played elimination, learned the 9 and 18 times table and then the got to play Sumdog. They did there assement on sumdog and then just played on it. The squared did a work sheet about times tables and then they went down to the carpet to do stuff with the teacher. They played elimination and then finished off there work sheet they got earlier on. When they where finished they got to go on sumdog.

After maths it was lunch time. It was an out door again.

After lunch time we came in and read our book holes. After that we got some tricky words, that we had to found the meaning of in our book.

After it we planned what we were putting on our rocket tomorrow. Tomorrow we are making our rockets so that is why we were planning today. It was really fun and everybody is excited making the rockets tomorrow.

This morning we were exploring the new Sumdog language with spelling.

 

After that we were writing book reviews because it helps our confidence and spoken in front of the class.

InPE we were doing ladders and workouts to keep us healthy.

 

 

In maths we were doing lengths to remember our 2,4,6,16,32. Time tables.

    

Primary 6/7 are using Scratch to create a background and select a sprite. They them created a program that moved and rotated the sprite and were challenged to make their sprite speak, insert and program a sound and if possible include a programmed costume change.

We are starting a new maths topic on Multiplying and dividing.

Some of us are learning about factors and multiples.

 

Here are some websites to help us understand what a factor and a multiple is and a game to play

Now we are doing the daily mile then after break we are doing time in maths.

Here are some pictures of our timefolders.

These time folders are for all our time work

Now we are reading our book called Holes , We are going to have a debate tomorrow to see if we are going to choose , Skellig or Holes.(I think holes is gonna win)

In health and well-being we were learning about comfort,Stretch and Panic Zones.

The comfort zone is when it’s too easy,your really bored and you don’t care.

The stretch  it’s challenging but not that easy.

The panic zone is when your freaking out and you really don’t get it.
