What will I be learning in P6a<\/p>\n

Literacy
\nLanguage is about communicating. We will enjoy reading novels, information texts and poetry and use these as a basis for discussion and prediction, considering intentions and feelings. We will also use these as a basis for considering literature through developing reading detective roles. We will be taught note taking skills and use these to identify keywords and phrases for comprehension of text. We will write in a variety of genres producing letters, scripts, imaginative stories and personal recounts. We will learn to speak confidently by scripting presentations and use Power Point to present to class and whole school assemblies. We will continue to develop our listening skills whilst listening to visiting speakers and through using video clips. We will develop our ability to distinguish between reliable and unreliable sources of information, particularly on the internet.<\/p>\n

Mathematics
\nThere is a lot to maths including mental maths, position and movement, number, money and measurement and information handling. We will investigate how maths is used in real life situations. Our active maths will cover continue using practical maths work cards, tarsia cards and online computer software such as ‘interactive resources and ‘Education City’.<\/p>\n

P.E
\nThis year we will be developing our skills in sports such as netball, tennis, Scottish dance, athletics, golf and gymnastics.<\/p>\n

Ethos and Wider Life of the School
\nAt St. Catherine’s we are very proud of the many ways that we help other people, develop awareness of our world and learn to be responsible citizens.
\nIn P6 we will:
\nElect members of our class to the school Eco Committee and Pupil Council
\nPerform at the school Christmas Show
\nPut on an assembly play about Mary Queen of Scots life
\nHelp raise money for MISSIO, UNICEF and Mary’s Meals
\nLearn about Fairtrade and raise awareness of this throughout the school. We will also form links with outside agencies to support our work<\/p>\n","protected":false},"excerpt":{"rendered":"
