This week in Primary 4 we have been finishing off our reading books ready for starting fresh ones in the new session. We have had some good discussion around these and Mrs Hillan is seeing a big difference in many of us with our confidence in reading aloud and our use of expression.
We have also completed a spelling baseline of the spelling words/patterns that we have been focusing on this term. This gives Mrs Hillan a good idea of how well we have been practising these words and our next steps in spelling.
In writing we got to create our own narrative stories based on characters that we had created a couple of weeks ago. We had to ensure that we used correct punctuation, paragraphs, and exciting words, as well as including a complication and resolution in our stories.
In Numeracy we have done some work on Division. This topic links in nicely with our previous topic of multiplication. This is something that will be continuing in our new session as we move on to Primary 5.
In our topic this week we have created some Egyptian jewellery:
Summer – I thought it was very interesting to make something out of pasta and paper plates
Shay – I liked it because it reminded me of Gucci.
Maisy – It was fun and a little bit sticky!
Alyssa – I thought it was fun and I just loved to see how people made pieces that were totally different from each other.
Derry – It was fun!
Ryley – It was really messy!
Olivia – It was fun and exciting to make these and all of the designs were so different.
Have a lovely weekend everyone!!
