Welcome to another week of learning in Primary 4.<\/p>\n

In Writing we have continued with our genre of Explanation Report Writing. We reminded ourselves how this sort of text had to be written in the present tense and also how this was not a text where we mention I or We or talk about our feelings. This week\u2019s piece was on The Life Cycle of a Butterfly. We used a smart start activity where we had to order the stages of the Life Cycle of a Butterfly, then we watched a video about this and took some notes. After this, Mrs Hillan showed us an example piece and we talked through this together before creating our own versions. Read some of our pieces below:<\/p>\n

 <\/p>\n

In Numeracy we have continued working on our tables, with a focus on all tables again this week. We will soon be completing our post-topic assessment on this to see how we have improved since the start.<\/p>\n

 <\/p>\n

In Spelling this week we have created interesting sentences using our words as well as testing our partners on the words for the week. We have also created some spelling pictures for our words.<\/p>\n

\"\" \"\" \"\" \"\" \"\" \"\"<\/p>\n

 <\/p>\n

In Reading we have continued to use our summarising skills. We have summarised our own group texts again. We need to ensure that we remember our punctuation as we write. We have also worked on our comprehension skills by answering questions based on our group texts.<\/p>\n

 <\/p>\n

In our topic this week we got to see some cool objects and artefacts from Ancient Egyptian times. Here are our thoughts:<\/p>\n

Sophie C – When Mrs Hillan opened the box, it was like we were in history.<\/p>\n

Summer – It was very interesting seeing all the things from Ancient Egypt.<\/p>\n

Erin R – It was fascinating learning about the Egyptians beliefs.<\/p>\n

Emily – I liked the cat statue because they thought they would be protected by it.<\/p>\n

Sophie G – I liked seeing different things with hieroglyphics on it.<\/p>\n

Olivia – It was exciting and there was some cool things inside the box.<\/p>\n

 <\/p>\n

This week we have begun our personal class talks where we have been sharing information on a topic of our choice. Mrs Hillan and our peers have been assessing us on our skills in doing this. The skills we have looked at are being able to speak loudly, speak clearly, look at our audience and share facts. We have really enjoyed hearing these so far, some really interesting subject choices. We will continue these next week.<\/p>\n
