Iona, Meg and Gemma B (me) completed our music medal recording. We all play clarinet. I was nervous and excited about doing this today. I’m also relieved that it is done!

In RME different groups presented their interpretation of a miracle, parable or Bible story. This has made our learning much more interesting. All groups dramatised their storyline, but we used different media to help tell the story e.g. Madeleine, Roan and Louisa made a story table using different colours of cloth, artificial flowers and puppet birds to tell the parable of The Sower. Freya, Lexis and Sarah told the story of Noah. They used a song, narration and a powerpoint with the use of transitions! Connor, Kiera B and Louise retold the parable of The Good Samaritan using Scotland and England football supporters to bring this up to date. Cameron M, Zoe D and Casey performed the miracle of changing water into wine. They used food colouring to help their drama!
The two groups who presented last week (Keira H, Declan and Annie; Ella, Olivia and Jane) refined their presentations and we talked about how important it is to practise and take advice from others to enhance performance.
My group – Scott, Ramsay and Annie retold the story of Ruth. We acted this out.
The Rocky Monster Show has seen the Wednesday cast performing the whole show…. it’s looking good! Please remember to buy your tickets. All of us are need for both performances.
The Hexagons have been working on division facts and fractions. In literacy and language we have been identifying the purpose of text – Miss Elliot taught us about entertaining, persuasive and informational texts.
Ben and Sarah watched their younger sisters performing ‘The Gingerbreid Mannie’ – a musical using the Scots language. Ava was singing one of the songs as part of a trio, and Ben said it was awesome and amazing! Emma was a baudron (cat) and she chased after the Gingerbreid Mannie. Sarah thought it was cool and awesome!
