In Primary 4 this week, we have been very busy learning about the farm. After looking at some farm books, we wrote down our ideas about what we wanted to learn. We passed the pebble round and talked about farms and discussed food and animals. We found out how to grow vegetable and how a farm works. We also found out where chickens and eggs came from. Or at least we think we did… Tia would like to find out more about how chickens grow in eggs! Which one came first? Does anyone know the answer? Zoe wonders how they make the food for the animals.
Art was very popular as we designed farm pictures based on farm paintings that Mrs Glancey showed us. We added our own touches and details to our pictures, used pens to colour them in and a paint wash for the sky.
On the Smartboard, we played a game where we had to match the animals to the right answer. We also made mosaic chickens to go with our Twits story. They look really colourful on our wall.
Our spelling test is fun and we really like to get the words right in our spelling test, so we practise them in our homework. Payton says the class did some great writing about Likes and Dislikes.
At Assembly we sang “Don’t build your house” which is one of our favourites, although we probably need to practise the movements because we are getting to do some of the harder bits now that we are in P4!
In Maths, we play Beat That! We play it every Friday. What we have to do is write down as many answers we you can in 90 seconds. Adam enjoys the challenge of the 2 times table.
Compliments of the week go to Ross, who informs us that he is good at answering questions!
All the work was fun this week. Have a lovely holiday weekend and remember not to come to school on Monday or Tuesday.
