This week in P6/5/4 we used our knowledge of upcycling to create some nice planters for our playground. We started out by decorating our welly boots.

We then planted our flowers into our new planters 🪴🪏

In our Interest stations this term, the pupils have chosen between crochet, art, clay and cake decorating. This week, the pupils were working hard to create and to use their new skills. Our art group was experimenting with paint this week, building on from their sketching the week before.

Our cake decorating group were following a nature theme this week and made some amazing looking cakes 🧁

Our clay group created statues out of clay, using their skills to add detail to their statues this week.

Our crochet group practised their crocheting skills and have started to make progress on how to crochet 🧶

Some great collaboration and communication going on within the groups this week!

This week was P6/5/4’s turn to have ICA Academy in our PE lesson. We were focusing on improving our football skills through different games and activities while practising our dribbling, passing and shooting skills.

This term P6/5/4 are practising our team building skills by playing different games and challenges. We have been using our collaboration, communication and critical thinking skills to solve problems and work in teams.

This week in P6/5/4 we have been practising our place value using different games. We used our dienes and number counters to build numbers.

We also practised writing our numbers in words using a set of playing cards.

Lots of collaboration and communication within our groups while playing our games, and some great recall of our place value.
