Maths

In maths we are learning about multiples. “A multiple is number that you make by repeated adding”.

Example

21 isn’t a multiple of 4.

6 9 3 are multiples of the 3 times table.

French

Today in French we had learned to translate French into English. We also did Christmas when we were doing the translate we all had a shot each.

We also made polo shirts out of paper and put Christmas designs and words on them

This morning we came in and we were learning to write a formal letter as an email. we did by writing a complaint to somebody in the class. We were writing a complaint about a hotel that was not up to standers.

Here is a picture of an email Sian sent to Arran:

After break time we did an informal letter back to Santa’s wife because Santa’s wife was being cheeky. we were learning to write an informal letter using vcop.

After lunch we were listening to Mr Mcmullan read the end of “Alex Rider Storm breaker.Here is a metaphor “The wind was tearing his eyes.” Mr Mcmullan left it on a cliff hanger.

Next we did maths: First we did a maths test and you had to answer as many questions as you can in one minute. Mckenzi scored a amazing score of “16”. well done Mckenzi ! Charlie Anne also scored 37!

Thursday 7th December

Today we were evaluating our books by summarising the main plot, main characters and saying why we thought it was a good or not good book.

We were also focusing on giving examples from the text as evidence for what we were saying about the book.

We were recording these ideas on video and then editing them with the imovie programme.

Here is a great example.

Our new words are linked to our new topic of global warming ,here is the words in case you want to practise them at home.

This is allan’s lovely handwriting

In case you can’t read Allan’s beautiful writing here are the words typed :

After we practised our spelling words we made a flow chart for our books. A flow chart is like a v.i.p. carpet but you can  go in all different directions , all you have to do is write down the main parts of the story we made an example of one based  on the class novel “stormbreaker”

This is a flow chart
This is our class novel

wednsday 29th november blog

This morning we were learning more about climate change which is our topic right now.

Then we read our books so that we can understand the text more. Some groups had to create their own questions about the text to show that they understood it.

 

Hes a strong reader!

In maths we are learning  repeated adding (multiplying) one group played elimination, what you do is you need to say numbers in the 4 times table and you can say up to 2 numbers, whoever says 40 is out!

Then we did our posters for the 8 times table and used Kieras 4 times table poster to show us what it should look like.

 

Kireas great
Good work so far euan!

 

Here are stop motion multiplying videos from Kiera and Aaron T.
