We have a good week, picking our topic for our assembly, working with Jen for Sing Out and doing some Halloween art in class!

Read on to hear more:

• We are working on fractions for maths looking at what a fraction is and how is can be displayed – on a shape, number line or as an amount of something.
• We have also been looking at shape and the difference between 2D & 3D shapes to see how these are made up.
• In writing, we continued with narrative and created a spooky opening paragraph to get our readers hooked and wanting more.
• We have the Fire Brigade come in and speak to us about keeping save on Bonfire Night. Fireworks are small bombs and only adults should handle them.
• In PE we are doing handball as we have a tournament coming up at Inveralmond Community High School.
• We were creating a haunted house art scene, using paints to create a spooky night sky and then using black and yellow paper to create a haunted house to stick onto out sky. See some pictures below – these all turned out really well!
• We have been looking at metalinguistics in our reading this week and using different ways to figure out what these mean.

Next week we will be getting started preparation for our assembly which will be on 15th November @ 9.30am in school. We’re all excited to be doing this for you all to see!

Our star of the week this week is Emma – well done to Emma for fantastic listening and staying on task at all times!

Have a nice weekend.
