What a wonderful week we have had in P6A.

This week we finished our percentages topic in Maths by assessing our learning.  We are looking forward to starting our learning of angles next week.

In literacy we wrote a recount about our October holiday and enjoyed completing a comprehension activity in which we peer assessed each others work.  We enjoyed our stations for spelling this week too where we learned how to spell our words using sign language, wordsearches, writing sentences and choosing random spelling challenges.  We also enjoyed our weekly visit to the library.

For our learning across the curriculum this term, our context is Space.  We are extremely excited about this and have already been enjoying learning about our Solar System and how we orbit the Sun and how the Moon orbits the Earth.  We have learned about how planets orbit and how long its takes to orbit the Sun.  We also found out how Pluto is no longer classed as a planet of our Solar System but instead, classed as a dwarf planet.

In outdoor P.E. we joined the other P6 class and played a range of games together, building our skills for working as a team.

We were very impressed with the P7’s assembly about ‘Inspirational People’, we particularly liked the Nelson Mandela song!
