Literacy

This week we have been building on what we already know about using speech marks. We were able to punctuate a passage that had the speech marks missing and we are going to apply what we know in our writing next week. We have also been playing a fun game that helps us to quickly recall whether a given word is an adjective, noun, verb or adverb.

Maths

We had good fun learning about multiplying by 10,100 and 1000. We also had a brief introduction to the decimal point and we will be learning much more about through the context of money later on in the year. We finished our work with angles and directions by going out into the playground with a compass and exploring how to use it.

LATC

We have been exploring the landscape of Scotland this week. We know about the weather in different parts of our country and the features of the landscape in different parts of Scotland. We have been learning to use the key on a map to identify the different features.

RME

We have been learning about Christmas traditions. We understand that both religious and non-religious people celebrate Christmas. We learned about Advent and know how Advent is celebrated religiously and non-religiously, the latter being with fun advent calendars that are full of chocolate!

Have a great weekend!
