Literacy
In reading this week, we were developing our skimming and scanning skills. We were given a text about Robert Burns and then we had to answer questions about him and his life. We would highlight the key words and find the answer in the text. This would help us when writing the answer.
In our writing this week, we were using our imagination to write a story about an accident. We had to read over our next steps from last week to ensure we were challenging ourselves.
Maths
This week, we were learning about subtraction. We had to use an effective strategy to help us solve the equations. Some of us have been using number lines, counters, partitioning and the column subtraction method.

On Thursday, we had a fantastic time at our digital day! Mrs Buntin had organised a variety of fun activities. Throughout the day, we worked our way around 3 stations. We were learning to code on the Bee-Bots and the iPad. We also created stop frame animations, which is where we create a film through moving the props and taking pictures. These have been uploaded to Seesaw so you can see your short films. We were also developing our typing skills, by logging into the laptop and then playing a keyboard game.
