This week we have been developing skills in handball in preparation for the handball festival next Wednesday. Our teams will be playing in groups of 6 against other schools from the cluster. We have been thinking about team strategies and revising different types of passes. Could you please ensure that your child has their gym kit and a bottle of water with them for the event. Also, a wee reminder that we have weekly gym sessions on a Tuesday and a Friday as lots of pupils are coming with no gym kit on those days.
We have been working on poetry in literacy and have created some excellent Autumn themed poems. We thought carefully about how to use adjectives to create better description and we tried to use alliteration. Next week we will be working on some Autumnal art work to create a new class display.
We have been working on our 4 times tables and it would be great if pupils could continue to work on these at home. Pupils have also been developing skills in written addition and continue to develop strategies through Number Talks sessions.
The class are excited about the Halloween disco and we look forward to seeing everyone’s costume.
