Children In Need :)

Children in Need will take place tomorrow, Friday 13th of November. Children can come to school wearing yellow, spots or anything Pudsey related! Everyone will enjoy some fun activities in the class and learn about the work Children In Need do to help others.

Boys and girls do not need to bring any money, instead a small donation will be made from the school on their behalf.

See you tomorrow! πŸ™‚

Remembrance Day Writing, Art & Yoga

What a wonderful Wednesday it has been in Primary 4! πŸ˜ƒ

This morning Primary 4 included a variety of VCOP in their Remembrance Day writing. Whilst we were completing this, we took part in our 2 minutes silence to remember the soldiers and lost lives of those who fought in wars to keep our country safe. ❀️ πŸ’­

After break, we created some awesome art. We began by developing our drawing skills using pencils to sketch out the lines and shapes of poppies. Soon after, we practised our painting skills then used shades of colour to create a natural effect. Tomorrow we will complete the background once the paint is dry, use pen for effect and finally display on our classroom windows. 🎨 πŸ–Œ

Wonderful Writing ✏️

Today, Primary 4 produced a wonderful information leaflet on the β€˜History of Halloween.’ We learned about where the name came from, Halloween traditions, Halloween around the world and how it has changed today. We remembered to include core targets and we used our success criteria as a checklist. Our next step is to take part in peer assessment. Well done to our Star Writers! 🌟 ✏️
