Welcome To Term 2!

It was lovely to see everyone back for the start of Term 2 and to hear about holiday adventures both near and far!

This week some of the learning that P4/5 have been involved in has included creating an atmospheric, moonlit sky for a spooky Halloween painting, creating a plan for a story about ‘staying out’ on Halloween night and starting our opening paragraph and in Maths, working with change.

It was very amusing to see some of these activities being carried out in Halloween costumes for our dress-up day!

We’ve also had a change of seating arrangements in the class so we’ve got new friends to work alongside.

Concentrating while mixing and blending colours.
Painting is always a favourite activity in P4/5!
A quiet class, happy at their work!

Opening sentences for Ollie’s ‘Staying Out’ story…

On Halloween Bobby and Miller go camping in the street.  They set down the tent on the grass next to a path.  The grass was wet, soft and damp but they paused.  They heard a noise, a loud noise.  It came closer and closer AND closer.

Opening sentences for Alex’s ‘Staying Out’ story…

It was Halloween and Jeremy and Bob went camping in the forest.  It was a misty and cold night and it was hard to see.  All they had was a small tent, a torch, beans, firewood and matches.  They were sitting next to the fire when suddenly it went out.

Monopoly Maths in fancy dress!
Super group work playing by the rules, working out change and double checking using calculators.

Thanks, John…for everything!

Today we had our final day with Janny John!  We have written lovely, heartfelt messages to him along with the rest of the school.  We enjoyed his company in class where we played Hangman together and then ended up with a game of Toilet Tag in the hall.  The best part of the day was when we all gathered together in the hall to watch him carry out his Taskmaster style challenges.  He will be a huge miss.  We have all been very lucky to have him.  Best wishes John!

Happy October holidays to you all!

Locking up for the last time.

Some interesting costumes on John’s last day!
