Thanks Miss McGregor 🙂
Primary six have been working hard since returning for term 2.
Literacy: In writing, we have been looking at narrative writing. We will be writing a piece about a haunted house in the coming weeks. For reading, we have started working in our reading groups and exploring different texts. We have been focusing on clarifying words this week.
Reading for pleasure has been a key focus this term. To encourage this, we have been reading audiobooks by scanning QR codes around the classroom. Some children have also been looking at non-fiction texts.
Primary 1 have been learning about Autumn this week. We talked about the different colours of the trees during this time, then painted our own trees, using foil to create the leaves. We learned about how hedgehogs go for a big long sleep in Autumn (hibernation) and we made our own hedgehogs using real Autumn leaves to create the spikes.
This week in primary 4 we shared our learning as part of our Explorers topic. We each took turns to present what we had found out about our country. We then set each of our clocks to the correct time zone so we could compare what time it was in different parts of the world.
We also looked at the festival of Diwali and had a go at creating our own Rangoli patterns.
This week we have been working on a new Literacy routine. This is where we have explored more active spelling tasks, reading with our friends, using our digital class library and many more literacy focused activities.
We created an Autumn wreath which we were able to put on show around our houses. We tried to make these from natural materials, however it didn’t quite work out that way!
