Our Netball Team
This week at netball we started off by going outside and practising some different passes then we stood on a line and practised how to shoot. After we did that we went back inside and chose our positions and played some games and everyone was amazing. When it comes to choosing the positions our coach likes to swap us about to see what we are the best at playing. I think the position I think I am the best at playing GA or GS.
Basketball
This week in basketball we did the chocolate challenge which is a thing where we try to get a basket in from the middle of the court
If we get it in we get a chocolate bar. We also played some matches. In the bib team there was Jack and none bib team there was Daniel.
Clarinet Ode to Joy
This week on clarinet I started to learn Beethoven’s Ode to Joy. This week I was the only person to bring my clarinet.
This song is all high notes on the top 5 bars. I also worked on a song called Sawmill Creek. I played it at assembly a while ago.
World War 2: Evacuation
This week in Primary 7b we have been learning about evacuation. Children, Older people, People with disabilities, pregnant mums and mums with very young children (under 4) were evacuated to the country-side. The reason for this is because Germans were expected to bomb cities and factories and docks. School children were evacuated with their teachers then billeted to places like a farm or cottage and even rarely a big house. Children could only bring a small suitcase with things like their Sunday-best, socks, handkerchiefs and school clothes.
Update on Broomland’s House!
This week was a bank holiday so no one won the house point challenge at assembly, however, we are still doing very well and we are still earning lots of house points! The house captains Caden B and Skye M have been round the school and counted up points. We will get a picture of the house captains soon and a picture of the Broomland’s house badge!
We will keep you updated every week so make sure you read our blog next week!
Thanks!
Cello Routine
Hi it’s Connie and Zoe and today we are going to share with you our cello routine.
So we do cello on a Monday.
We start off by getting our cellos out and that includes our bow, cello, music book and rosin.
Next we tighten our bow and rub rosin on the bow so that it doesn’t squeak.
After that we lay out the music we need for that lesson and extend our spike.
Unfortunately, we haven’t learned to tune our cello’s so our cello teacher tunes them for us.
We start off our lesson by playing a scale usually a two octave scale or a G major scale but it depends on what we are going to be playing that lesson.
Now we usually we learn a new song after practising the songs that we have practised at home.
Now it’s time to pack our cello’s away starting the cello itself then the bow then the music book.
Thank you for reading our blog post and we hoped you enjoyed reading our cello routine, see you next week.
