This week, with Mrs McGlynn, we have been continuing to learn about symmetry and have completed pictures using mirrors.

Mr Richards has been helping us to learn the skill of dribbling the ball with a hockey stick. He also let us paint the classroom in our drama – don’t worry Miss Macrae, we were just pretending!

Our writing this week was about our first day at school and we had to make sure that what we wrote made sense, that we had used the correct punctuation and that we had spelled our common words correctly.

Partitioning has been the word of the week in Numeracy. We have been partitioning 2- and 3-digit numbers, which means we have been breaking them down into parts and showing the value of the digits.

eg. 68 can be broken down into 6 tens (60), and 8 units (8)

So 68 = 60 + 8

Our topic, with Mrs McGlynn, is Charities and we already have a homework challenge to complete.  This fits in really nicely with our learning with Mrs Stewart, as we are going to be learning about the work of the RNIB which we will share with you at our assembly in October. Watch out for spots before your eyes!

We are SO excited about being Rookie Rockstars  – can’t wait for the team to visit next week!

Golden Time has had a strange effect on Mrs Stewart, she’s turned into a teddy! Wait a minute, no she hasn’t, it’s Lauren’s Barney bear that came for a visit! 🙂

Have a great weekend!
