It was great to see everyone and be back in class learning together.

We started the day by sorting everything ready for this year and clearing away Christmas activities! Then we made a comparison between our experiences in the first lockdown and then thIs one. It was interesting that lots of us have had the same feelings.

This afternoon we started thinking about our new topic – The Vikings  and we started by sharing what we already know.

Then we thought about what we want to find out.

I hope that you have a relaxing evening and look forward to continuing our learning tomorrow. We will try to have PE in the afternoon, weather permitting!

This mornings we were looking at the Gospels of Matthew and Luke to discover that there are different recounts of the Nativity story.

This afternoon we all watched the school Nativity and we loved the songs and carols from all the different classes and the acting from the Primary 7s.

Have a great break, stay safe and Merry Christmas, everyone!🎄

Today we were learning more about the properties of 3d shapes. Then we played Snowman Drive which is like playing Beetle Drive but without legs!! This was great for mental maths practice. In the afternoon we watched a virtual panto of Aladdin which was great fun. Then we played a couple of rounds of Who am I?

Here we are rehearsing our moves for our Makaton signed Christmas song for the virtual Nativity.

We had fun paying the Among Us game and using logic and strategy with our partner to beat the other teams.

In the afternoon we had a virtual elf visit and we were given a gift to take home. The elf knew all about Woodlands and how well we are working which was a great surprise!! 

It has been a different sort of party day, but there has been fun, laughter and being together which has been great!

Have a super weekend and I will see you on Monday and Tuesday for our last days of term in 2020. You can wear your own clothes, Christmas tops etc, and there are some lovely activities lined up for you. 🎄

Today we were learning about the properties of 3d shapes.

We know that 3 d shapes have length, width and height (depth) as the 3 dimensions.

Tomorrow we have our Christmas fun day, so we are looking forward to enjoying some Christmas- themed crafts, activities and games. 🎄

This morning we were writing instructions for how to play the Dreidl game which Jewish people play at Hanukkah. This afternoon we made Dreidl and had a go at playing the game ourselves.

We have been continuing to learn how to move into space and pass the ball to our teammates effectively.

This morning we were learning about Saint Nicholas and how he is known for helping the poor, the needy and the sick. We also learnt about some of the miracles that he performed.

This morning we were learning the history of the Jewish festival of Hanukkah which is also known as the Festival of Lights. We learnt about the miracle of the oil burning in the temple for 8 days.

We went on our Reindeer Dash and had a great time on our walk together in our sleigh teams.

Here we are enjoying our Christmas dinner!

Have a great weekend everyone 😁!

Our headbands are ready for the Reindeer Dash tomorrow! It’s Christmas ( or other)  jumper and Christmas lunch tomorrow- lots of photo opportunities available!

Today we were practising when to use the homophones to, too and two in sentences.

In data handling we were creating bar graphs based on survey data from another class.

Looking forward to our events tomorrow😁!

Today we were using templates to make the component parts for our reindeer headbands.

Here is one set on components ready to be asssembled.

On Friday we will be wearing them when we take part in the Reindeer Dash for CHAS.
