We have just had an amazing time in the hall taking part in the Dance-a-thon! Although we are a bit tired now, we managed to dance for a whole hour! We also managed to fit in a Gay Gordon’s and a Canadian Barn Dance – so much fun dancing with all our friends in P3, P5/4 and P5 too!

This week, we began our annual Heartstart sessions. This week, we revised our knowledge of what to do if we came across a conscious casualty. We remembered that we have to check for danger first, then check for response, then get help. We can phone 999 or 112 to get emergency services if they are needed.

In Numeracy, we were learning about arrays to help us with our multiplication facts. We already know that multiplication is repeated addition eg, 4X3 = 3+3+3+3. We are continuing to familiarise ourselves with multiplication facts for 2, 3, 4, 5 and 10.

This term, we are concentrating on non-fiction texts and their key features. Our writing will also be non-fiction based, as we will focus on Newspaper articles. If you have any recent (appropriate) newspapers that you can send in, they would be appreciated.

Please continue to support your child with any homework that is sent home and encourage them to attend Homework Club on a Wednesday lunchtime, if you think this would benefit them.

Have a lovely weekend!

P4 and Mrs Stewart. 🙂
