This week in P4

We have had a Mother’s Day theme running this week.  The children have been making/ baking/ writing over the week. I hope items arrive safely in one piece at home!

The children have begun exploring time and collecting information about planting seeds. It was quite a challenge to read the seed packet instructions and pick out the data they needed.

This week and next the children may come home with seeds to grow at home in eco friendly newspaper plant pots. When the seedlings appear, just plant the whole thing into the garden or a pot. the children should be able to tell you what they chose to plant!

We have also been learning about the story of Queen Esther in our religious and moral education, and we have had some interesting conversations about cultural behaviour of the time and the country.

 

This Week in P4

This week the children have been presenting their class talks and did an amazing job. The work they put in was impressive and they all delivered really well. #proudteachermoments

We have been working on maths word problems and how to read and understand the questions.  The children can usually do the math but find it more difficult to understand what they are being asked to do so we have been unpacking the vocabulary.

For literacy we have been proofreading and developing characterisation skills.

In P.E. we are continuing to explore hockey skills and teamwork activities.
