This week we have been really busy learning our lines for our assembly and thinking about costumes. Please can these be in school at the beginning of next week. Please help the children to go over their lines for the songs and the acting parts.

We wrote a newspaper report about the Viking attack on Lindisfarne. We learnt that newspaper reports have a catchy headline, punchy short sentences, not too much detail in the picture, an opening paragraph which summarises and then paragraphs with more detail in afterwards.

We enjoyed another futsal session, learning how to dribble the ball.

With Mrs Gray, our NYCoS teacher, we learnt about speaking the pulse, clapping the pulse and walking the pulse.

Mrs Mackenzie taught us about multiplication. We were learning how to show a multiplication story so that 2 x 10 is the same as 10 x 2 and how to make things simpler if we don’t understand the first question.

We also put forward 3 children for the Burns’ poetry recital competition and we were really pleased when Eva won a prize for her recital ‘Fireworks aff castle’.
