P6A have had a short, fun filled week of learning. Here are some of our highlights…
In Maths we have been continuing with fractions, learning about equivalent fractions, simplifying fractions, finding a fraction of an amount and converting percentages to fractions.
Liam- I found simplifying fractions quite challenging but I really enjoyed it.
Teighan- I enjoyed learning about equivalent fractions.
Connor- I found converting percentages into fractions quite challenging but I really enjoyed it.
Mia- I enjoyed converting percentages to fractions and finding a percentage of an amount.
In Literacy we finished our newspaper reports on The Tribes of the Rainforest. They are all looking great and we can’t wait to get some of these up on display! We have learned that newspapers need a heading that is short, too the point and something that will grab a readers attention. We also know that these reports have to include a mixture of information in text and picture form.
We have also been continuing with our class novel ‘Kid Normal’ and this week we have been revising character descriptions. We showed our understanding of the main character ‘Murph’ by using a range of adjectives and drawings to describe him.
Suvi- I enjoyed doing my character description.
We have been learning our days of the week in French and we have been working really hard on this.
Sophia, Ranna, Jason and Teighan- I enjoyed learning the days of the week, especially Sunday because I like saying “dimanche”.
Megan, Skye, Miles, Sophia, Ranna, Murray and Liam all enjoyed making posters for our European Day on the 26th September.
