This week’s highlights:

• Reading more of the Novel ‘Wonder’ – starting to understand things from his sister’s point of view
• Learning about Angles – how to measure them, how to draw them accurately, how to calculate angles when you know part of a straight line or whole turn and about vertically opposite angles
• Revising rules for Rounding numbers
• Exploring Volume, Mass, Density and Buoyancy in Science
• Improving our understanding of how to write a really great Description and using it to write about either a Spooky House or a New York Skyscraper scene
• Taking part in some Prefect Training to learn some new playground games with all the P7s.

Time for Reflection:

1. When were you at you best this week?
2. Why do you think that was?
3. What one thing do you feel you could work on next week?

We have had another busy week in Primary 7B. We have continued with our Novel Study and the class have enjoyed researching different landmarks for our artwork .

In maths, we have been rounding numbers and looking at place value.

We have started engaging with Descriptive writing texts and have been looking at adjectives to help us with this. In spelling we have been revising the short e sound.

We have been learning about forces in science and had to investigate friction within our classroom. The children were challenged to design an experiment which would test the distance and speed of vehicles on different surfaces around the room. One of the main considerations was how to ensure they were carrying out a fair test.

This week the Primary 7s got together to talk about their role as Prefects at Kingsland and had the opportunity to try out some playground games that they may use when helping out in the playground.

It was lovely to see the children working together in groups and consider the challenges they might face in different roles. Well done everyone!
