“Your deeds are your monuments”
( Wonder by R.J.Palacio)
Mr Browne’s percept this week created some interesting discussing in class. We thought August summed it up very well, “The things we do are the most important things of all…That’s why your deeds are like your monuments. Built with memories instead of with stone. “
We created some thought provoking wonder displays this week . We have a question for you …what do you wonder about ?
We journeyed to Asia this week to begin our topic on Japan. We now have origami cranes decorating our classrooms, a symbol of peace inspired by the life of Sadako Sasaki . Please ask your P7 to tell you her story, it’s very memorable. We are delighted to announce that we are having visitors form the Japanese consulate next week.
Taking inspiration from our visit from the author David McPhail , we have created detective stories this week , focusing on creating interesting sidekick characters . Look out Holmes and Watson!
Within numeracy we are continuing with rounding and estimating . We also spent time on multiplication games which can be played anywhere. Please ask your primary 7 to show you .
