Happy New Year and welcome back to our third block of primary 4, we hope you all had a lovely break.<\/p>\n
We are starting this block with our Scottish focus.\u00a0 We will be studying the poem ‘The Wally Dug’ (author anonymous) and using this to look at some Scots dialect and use of language.\u00a0 We will be looking at a range of Scottish artists and using their styles and techniques to inspire some art of our own.\u00a0 In numeracy we will be recapping and extending our knowledge of multiplication and division.\u00a0 There are lots of games and rhymes you can use if you wish to support this leaning at home and we will update our ‘Supporting learning at home’ tab in due course.\u00a0 We are also learning about fractions and information handling through our practical maths.\u00a0 Our science focus will be on forces and we have lots of exciting practical investigations planned which are designed to allow the children to explore and investigate their learning around this topic.\u00a0 Our reading, spelling and grammar will continue along the same format as in the previous 2 blocks; we will be covering comprehension skills,\u00a0\u00a0fact or opinion, conjunctions, singular and plural and dictionary skills. In health and wellbeing we are looking at food journeys, how advertising affects our choices and being resilient.<\/p>\n
As always, if you have any questions or queries please don’t hesitate to get in touch with us and we hope you all stay healthy and well this 2022.<\/p>\n
Best wishes,<\/p>\n
