As you can imagine, multiplication is a massive part of numeracy in Primary 4.   Here are some handy websites:

Holiday Week Reading Challenge

Pictures have started to come in for our October holiday , ‘Get caught reading in an unusual place’ challenge! We are hoping for more people to bring in their pictures and have extended the deadline to next Friday. We have prizes at the ready!

Weekly Homework

This week we started spelling homework. This is linked to the spelling pattern being studied in class but also includes 4 common words which the children find tricky to spell. Instructions are glued into the children’s spelling books and are as follows:

1. Copy your spelling words twice in your neatest writing.
2. Try covering the words, can you spell them correctly?
3. Choose one of the ways below (on the grid in everyone’s jotters) to write out your words

Homework is collected in every Friday morning and a spelling test takes place  – if you are interested this can be found in the back of homework jotters.

The children have been working with Mr Paterson and created some fantastic cranes!  What a great project!

You will all be desperate to see a sneak peak of the next set of tricky words.   Enjoy!

Set 2

Over the past few weeks the children have really shown an interest in their outdoor environment. We continue to enjoy doing the ‘daily mile’ when weather permits. Having a warm and waterproof jacket in school  enables us to make the most of the outdoors. The children have found a variety of different autumnal items including tree seeds and different coloured and shaped leaves. We have had lots of discussions about these and in the past few days we have enjoyed several art activities including exploration of colour in particular the blending of primary colours.

Here are some of our pictures.
