What a great week….

-We though about the important relationships in our lives and the importance of keeping connected to the important people in our lives.

What have you enjoyed this week and why?

Highlights of our Week by P7

Here are some of our highlights of the week as sketched by P7B:

We were also rewarded with a Prefect Break where we enjoyed mixing with our peers. We enjoyed table tennis, advent crafts, Just Dance, a Kahoot quiz and some free time on the iPads. Thank you for your continued hard work Primary 7!

P7B Rainforest Work

Primary 7B have been learning about the various tribes that live in the Amazon rainforest. We have been carrying out research to write diaries through the eyes of a child living in the rainforest and we are going to write our final information report on our choice of rainforest tribe.

We have particularly enjoyed creating these beautiful pictures of Kayopo tribe children and used a range of cutting techniques and materials. We have been amazed with the results.

Book week

During book week we looked at the story The Last Wolf and discussed the effects of deforestation. We worked with p6/7 to create some art which showed the last forest surrounded by concrete and buildings. We enjoyed the story but thought it was quite sad that humans had destroyed the natural environment and the creatures who lived there.

Remembrance

Remembrance
Learners immersed themselves in remembrance this week and had great maturity towards it.

We explored poppies, made poppy fields and made a split pin poppy.
We explored medals in the military and designed our own.

Book week

We have been having great fun this week exploring book week.

We  brought in our favourite books to share from home. Can you guess the readers display on our classroom window has created lots of discussion.

Learners redesigned the front cover for their book and created a character description. It was lovely reading a bit of our favourite books to Mrs Smith.

Have fun exploring your book bug bags and reading your favourite tales.

Literacy

In literacy we have explored character descriptions and increased fluency in our reading.  Our phonic this week was oo and we were very creative in our search for words with oo.

Our recount writing this week was on the book Dad and I went shopping.  We are learning how to structure a recount text.

We further explored verbs this week acting them out and changing tenses.

Numeracy

We have explored 100 squares. Talking about numbers, before, after and in between. We played games and built 100 square jigsaws. We continued 2x table playing bingo, creating groups and singing songs.

Maths

We used problem solving skills with volume.

After COP26 the class developed a great interest in reducing our carbon footprint and looking after our world.  We chose 3 class goals to reduce our carbon footprint, and we created poster to share with others.

Topic

This week we explored the sun and influence of shadows on day and night. We explored through light, and drawing shadows.
