Well it has been another incredibly busy week at St Nicholas!

In maths, we studied all about measurement. We have looked at distance / length, weight / mass, volume / capacity and how to calculate the perimeter of a regular or irregular shape. We also looked at how to convert from one unit of measure to another. This can be tricky, but we have rules to follow and these help us e.g. there are 100 metres in a kilometre. In Number Talks, we revised our addition strategies, for example Partitioning, Adding-Up and Compensation. We always name the strategies that we use and we explain what strategy worked best for us.

In Literacy, we looked at procedural writing. This can be quite tricky, but we now know the proper layout, so that helps a lot. In handwriting, we continue to practice our cursive joins. In grammar, we revised synonyms; we can see that they can be useful to us.

We researched all about genetics in Science; we discovered that our physical characteristics are inherited from our parents and their ancestors. We also looked into our topic ‘Our Democracy’. We discussed the different types of governments around the world and then we focussed on the differences between a dictatorship and a democratic system of government.

In Art, we have used our design skills to make a card for our Buddies, as we will be meeting them quite soon. We continued with our topic, ‘God’s Loving Plan’, we are learning that as we grow older, we change physically and emotionally and that this is all of God’s plan for us.

It was a great week for learning and fun too with our Silent Disco.

This was a short week for us, but we still managed to do so much. In our Math’s lessons we continued to look at budgeting, it can be tricky, but we feel that we are able to work on a budget now. We also did Number Talks, focussing on subtraction strategies, for example Re-ordering, Adding Up and Adjusting for Easier Numbers. We name the strategies used and we explain what strategy worked best for us. Problem Solving with Mrs Heather was fun; we did some IZAC 9 activities.

In Literacy, we looked at Facts or Opinions. This could be quite tricky until we came up with a definition to help us. We decided that for a statement to be a fact then it needed evidence and proof, otherwise it was just someone’s opinion. In handwriting, we practiced our cursive joins.

We studied the different parts of a plant and their functions in science and then we looked into our new topic ‘Our Democracy’. We stared to write a glossary for this, as there are a lot of specific vocabulary to this subject. It will be very interesting to find out how the Scottish Parliament works and what powers Westminster holds. We are interested to find out what all the different roles are and how we vote; some of us might even become politicians one day!

We continued to look at the technique of ‘One Point Perspective’ in Art. This week we captured a city scene. It took a lot of effort to capture the illusion of a city scene disappearing into a horizon point! PE was fun too, we were running, throwing and jumping within various athletic tasks.

In P6 this week, we started another new topic, ‘God’s Loving Plan’, this involved a lot of discussion and we have some homework to do too. It will be interesting to find out what we were like as babies; to remind ourselves of what we liked and did not like when we were really young.

All in all, it was a great week for learning.

The P6 Blog  (written by P6 pupils)

Throughout this week, we have been doing all our assessments. The first assessment we did was our maths assessment. We just took our time and made sure we understood what the question was asking us, before we worked out a solution to it. In maths and numeracy we did our daily Number Talks tasks (we had to use and name 3 or 4 different subtraction strategies to work out the subtraction problem). We also looked at budgeting this week. We had to make choices for spending money in a budget. One of the tasks was to use a budget of £2000 to design a bedroom; it was tricky, another task, was to buy groceries with a budget of £20, £10 and then £5. This became really quite difficult when we had a smaller budget, as we could not afford everything; we had to decide what groceries would be more useful.

 It was lovely to see Mrs Alvarez and she helped us to revise our Spanish Numbers, up to 30, and she introduced some brilliant Spanish counting games for us to play. 

 In PE we looked at Athletics, we focussed on throwing skills. There were different stations and there was a different activity at each station. It was exciting too, because we got a point for every time we scored. Later in the week, we stayed focussed on Athletics, but this time it was to practise our running skills. 

 In Health and Wellbeing, we watched a video and then we discussed our emotions. We concluded that sometimes it is better to take a step back, calm down and get into the right zone before speaking to others; this can mean that we have better communication with each other, rather than speaking in anger.

We finished our topic, Biological Systems, and discussed our knowledge of the life cycle of mammals, plants and birds. We learned about the differences and similarities between them all. 

 In R.E we studied the The Wedding Feast Of Cana, we watched a short video of Jesus’ first miracle. We discussed that Our Lady played a big part in helping the family at the wedding. Later in the week, we discussed how we can ask Our Lady to intervene on our behalf, all we have to do is pray the Hail Mary and Our Lady will help us.

 We also did many literacy tasks, some of these were assessments; we did a spelling, reading and writing assessment.

At the end of the week, we all took part in our Learning Participation Groups, we continued to look at the different tasks that we have chosen to undertake. We also, all brought in a book to ‘Donate for a Doughnut’, we thanked the Parent Council for the lovely treat.

It was a very busy week, but we have enjoyed our learning. Thank you for reading all about our week at Saint Nicholas, we hope you all have a lovely, long weekend.

We have had a great first week back. It was good to see all of our friends again. Read on to find out we did.

Literacy
In literacy we shared our holiday news and wrote all about it. We are mastering our skills writing and using our sounds to help us to write tricky words. We are also making really good attempts at remembering to use joining words such as, ‘and’, ‘so’, ‘but’ and ‘because’. We have been learning that these joining words help to make our sentences longer and more interesting. We also learnt how to write an information report. We learnt that information reports need a title, two or three pieces sentences about what it is you are writing about and a sentence to finish off the report. We will be spending the next few weeks writing lots in this style of writing.

Numeracy
We have revisited counting money as this is a really important skill that we will need for the rest of our lives. We engaged in lots of fun activities including: playing interactive games on the smartboard, playing shop keepers, using activity mats to make specific amounts and playing with real coins.

IDL
We had great fun splatting paint all over this week as we learnt all about the artist named Jackson Pollock. It was messy but fun! We also learnt about the important of wildflowers. We learnt that some people mow these down or pull them out which is a shame as the wildflowers provide food and shelter for minibeasts. We would like to see more colour and flowers at Saint Nicholas and so we made seed splats.  We got to take one home and we will  throw the rest around some parts of the playground. Fingers crossed that they work! We also celebrated Earth Day by switching off our lights and discussing the importance of putting litter in the bin.

RERC
We spoke about the joy that Jesus’s twelve disciples must have felt when they learnt that he was alive. We also discussed how Jesus’s friends were very important to him and spoke about how friends make us happy and what we can do to make others happy.

Read on to find out all about our super week!

Literacy

We learnt how to create a new style of writing this week called persuasive writing.  We learnt that there are certain words that can be used when we are trying to persuade someone to do something or NOT do something, eg ; PLEASE, DO, REMEMBER, STOP, NO and DON’T.  We used some of these words to design posters reminding everyone of the school rules. To make our posters look nice and to make the writing stand out we made our writing BIG and BOLD.

We also participated in lots of fun activities to celebrate ‘Book Week’.  We made bookmarks, dressed up as our favourite book characters, wrote book reviews and created a front cover and title based on the mystery book that our teachers read to us.  We decorated our classroom doors too in homage of our favourite books.  We have had such a lot of fun!

Numeracy

We focussed on halves and quarters this week. We learnt that finding half of an amount means to have two equal groups.  We also learnt that we can use our double facts to help us.  For example, 4+4=8, so half of 8 =4.

R.E

We learnt all about Shrove Tuesday and this day’s traditions.  We learnt that this day is the last day before Lent and a day which can feast on pancakes. On this day we had delicious pancakes,  Some had syrup, some had jam.  We also go messy, (this was great) when we made mud pancakes.

We also learnt all about Ash Wednesday which is the start of Lent.  Lent is the time before Easter. We learnt that on Ash Wednesday we are called to go to Church to get our ashes .On this day grown-ups should fast and think about the things that they can do to show Jesus how much they love him. We spoke about what extra things we can do during Lent and changed our classroom altar cloth to purple as purple signifies the start of Lent.

Topic

We drew sea horses for our display in class and spoke more about how we can look after the seas.  We learnt that we all have a special job to do to look after our world, just as God wants us too and by taking our litter home with us when we go to the beach is a super start.

We have had a great couple of weeks at school and learnt lots!

Literacy

We have been learning how to write and recognise more of the capital letters. We know that these have an important job to do and appear in our names, the names of places, months and days of the week AND at the beginning of a sentence. We have started a new weekly job, ‘Our News’ and are doing really well writing about our weekend. We have also been using our imaginations to write stories titled, ‘The Talking Cat’ and ‘The Sad Fish’. Our teachers are so proud of our efforts!

In our reading books we have been noticing more and more that some sentences end not with a full stop but with an exclamation mark or a question mark. When we see these we are learning to make our voices change. Our teachers have told us that this is called reading with expression. We think that this is clever!

Numeracy

We have been learning how to interpret bar charts and pictograms and have practised counting objects using tally marks. We have also been using rekenreks, numicon and cubes to find ways to make 10. We love using the bits and pieces in our classes to help us.

R.E

We have been learning that God wants us to use our gifts and talents to help others and that Sunday is a special day, a day to relax, go to Church and spend special time with our families.

Topic

We have been learning all about road safety with the help of Ziggy. We have learnt that there are special rules that we need to remember when we cross the road. We must, STOP, LOOK and LISTEN. We have also moved on to a new topic that we will be learning about over the next few weeks, ‘Under the Sea’. We will be learning all about lots of sea creatures, their habitats and what we can do look after our seas.

This week’s blog was written by the P6 pupils!

Welcome to P6 Blog  

We have been busy doing our tasks this week:

Maths

This week in Number Talks we continued to practise our subtraction strategies. We also looked at equivalent fractions, this is where fractions look very different, with different numerators and denominators, but they actually represent exactly the same amount. We played fraction  games and did a maths colouring/matching task, to improve our fractions knowledge.

Reading

For reading, our groups had Literacy Circle tasks to do, these tasks are to be carried out using our reading books. We read with the teacher and then discuss what the author has written and why certain styles have been used to describe characters and locations. We also did a Reflective Reading task, this was a Blankety Blank activity and was all about Edinburgh. In this task, we have to fill in missing words to make the text make sense.

Literacy

During literacy, we have been learning the correct way to use apostrophes for the contraction of words. When we put two words together to form a shortened version, we use the apostrophe to replace the missing letter.

Art

In art we learned about a popular artist called Paul Cezanne . He was known for doing still life art.

So we tried his style of art we used props like a flower, a hat, an orange and an apple it was very exciting trying this style of art.

Topic

We did some research on our Europe Topic, we also did a quiz with a whopping 75 questions all about Europe. This quiz will also help our Euro Quiz Team, who will represent us in the West Lothian European school quiz.

Mass

We went to mass this week at our local parish and sang some hymns and listened to Cannon Jeremy  talk about the Holy Spirit. We also had a good little walk over to the church and back which was really enjoyable.

Science

For science this week we learned about Newton’s disc. We learned that if you spin Newton’s disc in a fast frequency the Colours will become white to the human eye because the frequency of the disc is fast.

P.E

One of our P.E activities was the bleep test which is a fitness test to see how long you can run.

We also did gymnastics, which was very good. We revised some ball skills too, shoulder and chest passes.

Music

In music we went to the music room and played Instruments including maracas, drums and other instruments.

Problem-solving

In problem solving each group got 9 cubes and we were asked questions to solve with the cubes which we were given.

Thank you for reading this week’s P6 blog!

Have a lovely long weekend everyone and see you all next Wednesday!

This week’s Blog was written by the P6 pupils, well done to the group who focussed on the recount of this week’s activities.

Welcome to the P6 Blog we’re going to inform you about what we have been doing this week. We have been doing presentations, this is for our new topic, which is learning all about Europe. We had to develop a presentation about travelling to a country in Europe. It had to include a lot of details; capital cities, currency, landmarks (man made and natural), languages, famous people from that country and how we would travel to get there. It was very exciting to watch everyone present their work and it has helped us all learn lots about the countries of Europe. We have also learned, that France is really popular!

In maths we have been learning about mixed numbers and improper fractions more specifically how to convert from one to the other, yet again we have realised how important it is to know our times tables.

For writing, we looked at developing our own poems. The type of poem we looked at was Bio Poems. This is where we write about ourselves, using adjectives and figurative language to describe how we think and feel about things.

We continued to do literacy circles all week and we followed our rota, this meant that we did different activities every day, using our homework reading chapters.  It’s fun discussing our novels in our reading circle.

We also celebrated Mass this week with Canon Jeremy. On February the 2nd, it was Candlemas Day, this is where we celebrate that Jesus was presented at the Temple. During the Mass, Canon Jeremy blessed all of the candles.

Bye and we hope you enjoyed reading all about our week.

This week’s Blog was written by some of our pupils. Well done to you, you have written a really good recount of our week.

The Blog

In maths we learned about Factors and Prime Numbers. We did this using a ‘Maths Through Story’ activity. It was based on the book ‘Bean Thirteen’ by Matthew McEiligott  and following the story we saw that some numbers can only be divided into equal parts by themselves or the number one, this makes them a Prime Number. We also learned that if a number has more than two factors, then we can call it a composite number We also did our maths assessments this week. In number-talks we did subtraction strategies.

We did literacy circles and did our writing assessment. Our assessment was to write a recount of something that had happened to us. We had to make sure we used the proper layout for a recount story.

In P..E. with Mr Muldoon we did fitness circuits and skipping. In P.E. with our teachers we made up our own dance routines. We had to make a pattern of movements to a count of 16.

In Grammar we learned about different types of conjunctions ( for coordinating conjunctions we learned to use the acronym for them which is FANBOYS – For, And, Nor, But, Or, Yet and So).

We also were learning about Europe, and we also learned more about the countries in Europe and their capital cities. We also did a Kahoot challenge.

We did a collaborative art project in Art, the portraits were of Billy Connolly and Robert Burns, this was in the style of the Artist Chuck Close.

In Science, we learned about light (light sources), and had a discussion on how rainbows are made.

Finally, we had a workshop from ‘Shoogalie Road Productions’ all about  Robert Burns and, together, we all developed a Poem, Wee Jeanie helped us to do this, she was Robert Burns’ wife.

Primary 1 have had a fantastic fortnight!

What have we been up to ?

Literacy

We have learnt four new sounds, qu, ai, oa and th and engaged in lots of fun activities to help us with our learning. We coloured in queens, looked at quills, and made lovely thistles. We also played with trains and looked at boats.  We also  practised reading our common words.  Our teachers are so proud of how well we are doing with these as lots of them are tricky! We are now understanding that if we want to become good at something we have to practise.

We are writing lots and lots at the moment! One of our favourite jobs  was writing a letter to Santa Claus! Our teachers have told us that we will all definitely be on the ‘Nice List’, phew !  We also wrote a little passage about Winter time.  We have decided that although Winter is a cold season it is beautiful and especially when God sprinkles frost all over.

Numeracy

We did lots of oral number counting in 1s, 2s, 5s and 10s.  We have also been looking at different ways to make numbers, for example 2+2 = 4, 4+0=4.  We have also been learning that there are different words and phrases that also mean ‘add’.  These include, ‘plus’, ‘more than’ and ‘how many altogether’?

R.E

We celebrated the Patron Saint of our school, Saint Nicholas on Monday the 6th.  We learnt a song, ‘Jolly Old St Nicholas’ and participated in Mass which was led by P6.  We are proud that our school is named after such a kind Saint.  We too will always try our best to be kind like St Nicholas.

Health and Wellbeing

We are continuing to check in each morning using our check in pebbles and pegs.  We do this as it lets our teachers know how we are feeling. We have spoken a lot this week about what is means to feel included and how to be kind to others.  We listened to a story, ‘Kindness is my Superpower’ .  This story was great as it helped us to remember that kindness is important.

Finally…

We have all been filmed this week doing our little job for the Nativity and the clips are being edited. The link will be sent out next week, hooray !

Have a lovely weekend everyone,

P1 teachers.

This week’s Blog has been written by our pupils. Well done, a great report everyone.

In P6 we did Maths, it involved playing 3 games and it was all about pie charts. One of the games was making pie charts and the other games were using pie charts to solve problems. We played all 3 games and really enjoyed them. We also found out about how pie charts work and how they help us store useful information and gather information.

During the week, after our breaks, we have milk, snack and watch News- Round, it’s fun, as we then discuss the issues we have just heard about.

In literacy we did Literacy Circles, in our groups, and worked on certain skills of reading and understanding.

Later in the week did PE, then we had science with Mrs. Quinn.  We attended Mass for the Feast of St. Nicholas. It was really lovely because we were in the Chapel and we were singing beautiful hymns. We also practiced our cursive handwriting this week.

Throughout the week, we have practised the Carols for our Christmas concert. At first we found them quite tricky, but now we can really enjoy them as we are more confident. The Carols are,  C is for Christmas, Christmas Calypso and All the Angels in Heaven Rejoice.

We also did some Reflective Reading and this really helped us with identifying good adjectives. Our writing this week was an information report on someone that we admire and are inspired by. We had to remember to use the proper layout and include lots of facts.

This week was so fun.

This week’s Blog has been written by some of our pupils, well done for a wonderful report.

P6 St.Nicholas Blog

In p6 we had a very busy week.

Maths

We played three different math games like Dice Predictions, Lucky Numbers and Football Data. In all of these games we were learning to sort and handle data using Tally and Frequency charts( (.

Number Talks

In Number Talks we had 3 options (Hot, Spicy or Mild) and we had to pick one and work it out showing 3 to 4 different subtraction strategies.

Literacy

We did Guided Reading, Literacy Circle Roles, Independent Reading and Discussion Group work .

We continued to look at writing an informative report. We were looking at using the proper structure, Then we planned and wrote a report about Saint Nicholas.

Health and Wellbeing

P6 had P.E with Mr. Muldoon, we were continuing to learn about the game of badminton and we practised these tactics in games.  We are also starting to learn Scottish Country Dancing. We continued to practise ‘Strip the Willow’ and our next dance to learn will be ‘ The Gay Gordons’.

We also continued to work on our Zones of Regulation program.

We had Science with Mrs Quinn and we had Problem Solving with Mrs Heather (we used the IZAK 9 cubes – they are so much fun).

In Art, we looked at shading to create a 3D object. We did a pencil drawing in our Snapshot Jotters and then we did an oil pastel still-life of the Advent Wreath.

Next week, we are attending Mass, celebrating the Feast Day of St. Nicholas, so this week we have been learning all about him. We have also been participating in some hymn practice.

In Spanish we worked in groups to make a movie about Spanish classroom instructions. We then posted our movies into the P6 TEAMS.

Miss McCormack and Mrs Kilpatrick wish you all a lovely weekend.

This week, two of our P6 pupils have written the Blog, here is their report.

P6 A Busy Week!

This week we have been very busy with our work and activities.

We did a STEM activity with Mrs Quinn. It was planning and carrying out an egg drop. The idea was to design a safe way to drop an egg, so that it would not be damaged. Most of the eggs did not crack, so we were very pleased with our results. Also in science we revised the Water Cycle and then we used our knowledge of this subject to debug some programs, using SCRATCH, that were showing the Water Cycle process.

In maths we moved onto a new subject. We started to look at surveys and making up good questionnaires to gather information. We continued to look at using addition strategies in Number Talks.

In Spanish we were learning new vocabulary for classroom instructions and we played a game of Simon Dice (Simon Says).

We looked at the Zones of Regulation in Health and Wellbeing. With Mr Muldoon we played badminton and we were learning new skills and tactics. We also stated to learn a Scottish Country dance with our class teachers. It was Strip the Willow and we were warned that it was a bit tricky but lots of fun. We will be practising this and learning other traditional dances.

For literacy, we did a verb task, we had to recognise and underline the verbs in a sentence. We also continued with our Literacy Circles, were we focus on our reading skills.

We designed a Christmas card, an entry will be chosen from each class to go into a big national competition. Very exciting.

On Friday we started our Pope Francis Faith Award program, we looked at the Gifts of the Holy Spirit and then we looked more closely at the Gift of Knowledge .

Well done you two! A very informative report.

Have a lovely weekend everyone!

This week’s Blog was written by two of our P6 pupils, well done you two!

Blog about our week

On Monday we did science we learned about air resistance and we made a parachute we also learnt about Saints. A particular Saint can become special to us and when we need guidance or help we can pray to that Saint and ask them for their help. We also did some grammar too, we were looking at prepositions. We started looking at divisibility tests in maths. We carried out tasks that required us to test a number to see if it could be divided by 2, 4 and 8.

On Tuesday we did tennis in P.E. it was so much fun. We also did literacy circles, this is where we take a close look at the text in our novels. We then do activities that help us create, evaluate, analyse, apply, understand and remember, this really helps us in our own writing too. We did maths, again we used the divisibility tests to see if a number could be divided by 5 or 10.

On Wednesday we looked at the divisibility tests for dividing by 3, 6 and 9 and then played some games to try out the new tests we had just learned. Then it was time for handwriting, this is where we get to practise writing in cursive. Later, we had a musical appreciation activity. We listened to music and then we drew an art piece, our art was inspired from the music.

On Thursday we played games in maths that used our divisibility tests knowledge. We also made posters that will be put together to make a booklet, so that we can always check on the divisibility tests when we need to use them. In writing, we looked at writing a recount and once again we studied the proper layout that we should use. We know that a recount should have a title, orientation, sequenced events and a personal statement at the end. Finally we looked at numbers in Spanish and then went outside to play some P.E games, it was very fun.

On Friday we looked at the pilgrimage of St. Columbus and then we tried to locate important parts of St Columbus’ journey on a map of Scotland. We had Build-Up Time and then we settled to listen to our School Assembly, it was all about catholic week, which is next week.

Thank you for reading about our week.

This week’s Blog was written by two of our P6 pupils. They collected all the information and then using their ICT skills they developed their report and sent it to the Blog. Well done P6!!

Hello this is what we did this week.

Maths

In maths we learnt how to use brackets and the strategy of re-ordering digits to make calculations easier. We where playing maths games – Race to 100, and games using our new re-ordering digits and using bracket skills.

PE

We got put into teams and played basketball against other teams.  Later in the week, we played games to do with hockey, we are getting better!

Topic

We researched star constellations, we choose a constellation to model with marshmellows and straws then wrote facts about that constellation around it.

Class Assembly

In groups we all were  doing the Story of Moses timeline.  We finished this task off and then we displayed it in class, this will help us while we are preparing for our Class Assembly.

We were working hard on our Class Assembly tasks, we all put forward our ideas of what should be included and then we decided in our groups how we are going to show our information.

We then started to plan our work by using  storyboarding techniques and then we started to capture our ideas in the ways that our group had decided.

Literacy circles

We got new chapters for our books. We read through our pages and discussed any vocabulary that we weren’t sure of.

We read through our novels and then answered Bloom’s Questions to show we had a good understanding of our stories.

Well done P6 a very good report. Have a wonderful October break everyone!

The P6 Blog was written by two of our pupils! Great job you two!

Hello this is the p6 blog on what we have done this week!

Wednesday

In the morning we were finishing unfinished work when we entered class.

Next we were writing our spelling words three times and writing three sentences with our words in the sentences.

On Wednesday we had a template of a line graph based on a story called Less than zero. The graph was called saving clams for a scooter and we had to follow what the penguin had on his graph

We had break milk, story and Newsround. The story was based on the book called wonder and that is linked to our kindness topic for literacy.

We did a comprehension on the song A Cover is Not a Book which really meant not to judge somebody of how they look. P6 were discussing about questions on a comprehension sheet.

After lunch we did self-portraits and we drew lines around it to decorate in between the lines and add precepts. ( precepts really are sayings and rules of life)

And then it was home time.

Thursday

We come in school and finish more of our unfinished work.

After that we did an apostrophes work sheet where you had to put the apostrophe in the correct place.

After that it was break and we had milk, story and Newsround.

Then we make our own line graphs and follow how many clams ( which is really money ) Perry penguin had.

After lunch we did a bit of bible studies on Moses.

We played some P.E games with the other class like grannies and Grandads,shark attack and saucers and tea cups.

Friday

We did unfinished work, we had a bit of build up time!

We also wrote our own prayers on paper stars and put them on our prayer wall.

Then we have break, milk and Newsround

We have assembly and more build up time then it is home time.

That was our short week thank you for reading our Blog!

The Blog, this week, was written by two P6 pupils. They asked their peers what they wanted included, and then they wrote their report. They did a wonderful job, well done!

P6 school blog 

 On Monday to start the day of we had some teamwork games with Ross (Active Schools). It was extremely fun. We also listened to the audiobook of wonder, we got to quite an interesting part. We all went to P.E. and played some basketball. We were focused on dribbling and shooting. At the end of the day some people passed bike ability and they are now on level 2!  

On Tuesday we did our targets for numeracy, literacy and growth mindsets then we stuck them up on the wall. We started literacy circles. We also then did S.T.E.M.  We did the plastic cup telephone and found out it works but only if it is taut.  

On Wednesday we created our own superheroes! We had to write a paragraph about our superheroes and why they do good and how they became a superhero. We listened to wonder again and finished our S.T.E.M. We also did more literacy circles. 

On Thursday we had P.E. with our teachers we played shark attack, grannies and grandads and pirates. We finished of our superheroes and did number talks. We also got told we were great at literacy circles. 

On Friday we did a worksheet on kindness, courage, friendship and courageous we had assembly and then had build-up-time.
