This Week in P7/6

This week in P7/6 we:

Learned about rationing during World War Two and how our modern day diet differs to that of the early 1940’s.
Wrote the final draft of our evacuee letters.
Discussed clothing in French and designed our own piece.
Looked at various strategies for addition in Numeracy.
Played the Shannon Switching Game in Maths, looking to find a winning strategy and to identify if one of the players had an advantage over the other.

Have a great weekend!

Nadia: ‘We learned about vegetables in French and did comprehension tasks on our book, ‘The Boy in the Striped Pyjamas.’ We also did plenty of maths and literacy. We marked our writing, read lots and met our buddies!’

Evie: ‘We have done lots of decimals in maths, literacy and reading our books. We wrote letters as evacuees to our parents.’

Ollie: ‘We looked at the story of St Therese of Lisieux and looked at tenths, hundredths and thousandths in maths.’

P7/6 also learned of the story of Jesus healing the paralysed man and learned our first couple of basic steps in our 1940’s style jive dance.

Have a great weekend!
