This morning we were learning how to develop characters by explaining what they say and what they do.  We had many opportunities to talk and work with different partners.  Then we acted out a short scene  before writing a paragraph about 2 or 3 characters.  Everyone put their jotters in the green marking tray which indicates they understood today’s work.  We then recorded in our diaries what we had learned in today’s lesson.

If you’ve not returned your permission and data slips, please bring them in tomorrow.

This morning we joined up with P5/6 for our Daily Mile.  It was nice to walk and talk with some of our old classmates.

For PE, after our warm up, we split in teams to play crab football.  It was tough going at times but we played well as teams and developed some tactics.

If you haven’t brought your permission slip in, please do so tomorrow- thanks!

Today we text marked a page from our class novel, The Diary of a Wimpy Kid.  We were looking for nouns, verbs and adjectives.  We then found out about other parts of speech including prepositions, adverbs and conjunctions.

Remember to bring your PE kit tomorrow and on Wednesday.  If you’ve not brought back your permission slip, please bring it in tomorrow.

This morning we created our “I Am”poems in the style of John Clare. We used a online website called Oakdome to help creat our poems.  Next week, in ICT, we will edit and publish our poems for a display.

This afternoon we had structure activities.  We all had a turn a creating a scene from our class novel, The Diary of a Wimpy Kid, using Lego; colour theory in art and Active Learn on the ipads.

Please remember to give the A4 white envelope to an adult in your house then bring your permission slip etc back to school.  When everyone’s brought their permission slip back we can go to The Luggie.

This afternoon we created a new game based on Dodgeball.  We combined both the rules for the game from P5 and Mrs Pollock’s version.  We created a high energy and competitive game.   All most everyone had their PE Kit .

Today we continued our revision work on Parts of Speech. We were looking at nouns and adjectives building on yesterday’s work on verbs.

 We also had PE this morning.  Most  children had their PE kits but quite a few children didn’t have suitable footwear.  Due to health and safety reasons, children are not allowed to take part wearing socks only.  We have PE again tomorrow afternoon.
