Primary 6 are continuing to make good progress in learning this term.
We have well and truly begun our historical investigations into our Scottish roots: focusing on WHO the Jacobites were, WHEN in history they were living and WHERE they could be located within Scotland and abroad. We have time lined the Stuart family tree to understand where the word “Jacobite” comes from and are beginning to build up information about Scottish clans and their influence on the Jacobites. When the weather improves, we are looking forward to heading outside to continue our investigations into battle tactics, Jacobite soldier formation and increase our familiarity with the infamous Redcoats.
We are looking forward to getting to grips with Guided Reading in our classroom, delving into the wonderful world of texts, whilst developing our reading skills. We have been developing our understanding of the layout, structure and contents of factual report writing. We continue to up-level our work to ensure it is to the highest quality.
As part of our classroom community work, we are beginning to examine Growth Mindsets to develop our learning power. We look forward to increasing our independence, our resilience and our perseverance within school and out, developing our future working and life skills.
Mrs Ross
It looks like you have been learning lots of relevant information about the Jacobites. What skills have you been developing? I look forward to hear big about how you are developing your learning power.
