Sharing Our Learning
Primary 4 had their first music lesson this week with NYCOS, they are going to be coming into our classroom for a block of music lessons. This week, we practised clapping along to the beat of a song through different games, we practised singing along to the beat and hour music hand signals. We used our communication and collaboration skills when working as a group and in pairs and we used our creativity by making music.
P3/2 have had a busy first week back after October break. We have had a fun Halloween focused week! We started off the week with practicing our spelling words by writing them onto pumpkins and on spooky pictures.
In the afternoon we got creative out doors and collected leaves to create hedgehog leaf collage pictures.
We then investigated the cause of reactions by experimenting with different liquids. We made predictions what would happen when we combined water, soap, baking powder and vinegar together and then carried out the experiment. We then wrote up our observations.
Later in the week, we practiced using our core targets in literacy by writing spooky sentences. We then created spooky narrative stories.
After a busy week filled with lots of Halloween activities we are finishing the week off with a Halloween Party 🎃 HAPPY HALLOWEEN from P3/2 🎃
P2/1 are very excited about Halloween! Children have enjoyed building their fine motor skills this week by making pumpkins and ghosts from play dough, and then using describing words to write about their creations. They have also tackled a witch’s potion challenge, where they had to use tweezers to find the letters in the cauldron that matched the sounds on their potion recipe.
P3/2 and P4 have worked hard learning about Diwali and the story of Rama and Sita. Today they showcased their learning about Diwali and performed the story of Rama and Sita. Well done everyone! Happy Diwali!🪔
It was P6/5’s 2nd time in the Forest with Rob from Kids Gone Wild this week.
We were all really excited to get out there and, of course, get on that zip line!
We worked together to problem solve; how could we get the zip line back to the next person waiting when it was too high for us to reach?
We collaborated and communicated when it came to who was getting the next shot and how long each duo were on the net for.
We created something from nothing, using wood, natural clay, leaves and lots of other natural resources found in the forest.
Best of all, we had fun as a whole class and really showed what a great team we are. Well done P6/5!
