Literacy

This week we have been developing character profiles. We are using our climate topic as a stimulus. We had to decide a name for our characters and then give them a profile. We had to decide on likes and dislikes, hair colour, eye colour, profession, family and what age we would be. Next week we will be using this information to begin writing about our characters journey to the Arctic.

Maths

This week we have been focussing on numeracy skills. We have lots of fun activities that we can do to help us develop our numeracy skills.

Jason – I like Harry Potter maths because it helps me to remember my times tables

Campbell- I like the game we play on the smart board. You have to race the clock to get your times table right I think it’s fun.

James- I like the loop cards game that we play it helps my times tables.

Kiara- I like playing nine snap.

Megan- We made our own times tables and cut out the answers and we have to jumble them up then match them all together again.

Hannah- I like the whiteboard challenge game.

Connor- I like the times table bingo.

LATC

We have been learning about the climate in the Arctic and the Antarctic.

Euan- the Arctic is slightly warmer than the Antarctic.

Suvi- Plants find it difficult to grow in the Arctic and Antarctic because it is so cold.

Sophia- it is too cold for people to live in the Antarctic

HWB

This week we took part in a sponsored circuit activity in school to raise money for school funds. We all had a great time and hopefully we will find out soon just how much we have raised.

Have a good weekend…..7 weeks until summer!!
