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.<\/p>\n
The Blog<\/p>\n
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\u00a0 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.<\/p>\n
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.<\/p>\n
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.<\/p>\n
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).<\/p>\n
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.<\/p>\n
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.<\/p>\n
In Science, we learned about light (light sources), and had a discussion on how rainbows are made.<\/p>\n
Finally, we had a workshop from ‘Shoogalie Road Productions’ all about\u00a0 Robert Burns and, together, we all developed a Poem, Wee Jeanie helped us to do this, she was Robert Burns’ wife.<\/p>\n","protected":false},"excerpt":{"rendered":"
