We are learning to:write clear instructions using sequencing words.

Share our learning about the rainforest with our parents.

To add and subtract with money and use money in every day contexts.

It has been another very busy week in Primary Four which culminated in our share the learning afternoon. Our classroom has been filled with wonderful smells from our fruit kebabs and our rosemary and lavender rainforest bottle gardens.

At the Rainforest cafe we earned £50 for the Edinburgh zoo, we have decided to adopt an animal there that comes from one of the five rainforests around the world.

We made rainforests in a bottle with our parents it was very fun, it was very messy! The cakes were very nice and some of them were very big.

We made a rainforest in a bottle and we showed our mums and dads how to do it.

We wrote instructions and this is what we wrote:

First cut the bottle with a sharp pair of scissors, cut a third up.

Second put a handful of stones in the bottom of the bottle, then put some potting soil on.

Then put your plant in.

Fourthly cover the soil with sticks.

Finally spray it with water and put the lid on.

Now, watch it grow!

We made some jewellery, we painted our necklaces and our headdresses, we made our bracelets with paper. It was very fun.

In maths we learned about money, we counted money and learned about coins and how to give change. I liked it because counting money is fun.
