P4 Learning 17.9.21

This week we have been learning about:

We have been comparing numbers as more than and less than. We have begun a block of practice on adding and subtracting and we have been learning about fact families.

It was Roald Dahl Day on Monday, we did describtive writing and learned how to be a better writer.

We have upgraded our library/reading corner – it’s great.

 

 

 

 

 

We have been learning about sportsmanship in PE and improving our fitness.

On Friday we tasted some French beans from the garden…

“They taste like leaves!”     “I didn’t like them.”   “Mmm They were nice!”

Please note: Our Home Learning sheet (see below) was given out to be returned by 5th Oct.

2021 Outdoor timetable Term 4

Outdoor Learning will be running again this term and the days and classes are listed below.  We ask that the children can be as suitably dressed as possible on the days they will be going outdoors.  Please consider that we could be walking through woods, soft muddy ground, or wet grass. It could rain, be windy, cold, snowing, drizzling or hot sunshine.  On very hot sunny days you may want to provide sunscreen for your child to apply.

It is always advisable to wear layers and always have a coat/raincoat.  The school has waterproof trousers and rain jackets for those that need them.

Whatever the weather, sandals are not suitable!  Some trainers may not be waterproof enough – it may not rain today but the ground could be muddy from yesterday’s rain.  Sturdy shoes, sometimes even wellies are a good idea.  Again the school has some pairs of wellies if they are needed.

Thank you for your continued support,

Mrs Smith

P6 highlights of school so far…

I asked the children what had been their highlights so far in school, whether it be learning or activities or things they do with friends. Here is what they said:

  • Measurement in maths using centimetres, metres and kilometres.
  • Playing handball and hockey matches in P.E.
  • Reading Friend Or Foe by Michael Morpurgo as a class novel.
  • Learning about multiples, factors, prime numbers and cubed numbers in numeracy
  • Futsal
  • Girls football
  • Art linked to WWII
  • The WWII topic – all of it!
  • Writing activities linked with grammar and spelling and using the Nelson skills book
  • Making the candy cane reindeer for enterprise
  • Using Scratch coding programme
  • Outdoor Learning – tidying the garden and especially the s’mores!

Well done everybody, looking forward to next terms adventures,

Mrs Smith

Happy holidays, we are back on Wednesday the 6th January.
