P6 have been hard at work this week- keep reading to find out more!

• Maths- We have been learning about time this week. We know how to convert times into 12 and 24 hour times, we have also learned how to use an empty number line to calculate durations of time. This is a strategy and a skill we can use in our own lives now we know how! We have been practising the partitioning strategy in our Number Talks.
• Literacy- We have been working on our Reading Skills. We used our reading books and each group worked on a different skill to help us understand what we have read. In Writing, we have been learning about the structure and purpose of a recount. We had a go at writing our own recounts about Halloween.  We have been practising our cursive script by writing a fact file about ourselves.
• HWB- In PE, we have been learning tennis skills. We were playing ralleys to practise our backhand and forehand passes. We have continued our learning on Zones of Regulation and we enjoyed playing Bingo to recognise facial expressions that emotions can give us.
• Spanish- In Spanish, we have been learning our colours. We can also ask each other what  colours we like as well as ones we love, dislike and hate.
• Topic- We have learned what the phases of the moon are this week. We know that the moon’s phases run for 28 days and that is where the concept of months came from. We had to complete a diagram to show the phases of the moon in its 28 day cycle.  We also enjoyed creating loop cards to test each other on our Space knowledge so far!
• RERC- On Monday, we celebrated All Saints Day with a Mass lead by Father Jeremy.
• Art- We followed a tutorial to create a fireworks picture. We had to use our listening skills as well as technical skills like folding to create our picture. We also painted pebbles with an eco theme for our COP26 school path.
