Primary 4 Library Corner

Primary 4 are very proud to have been chosen as winners for the middle school in our competition. We are looking forward to heading to Watersons to get books for our library. We worked together to come up with a theme and then everyone took part in making and designing something for the corner. We have favourite book covers, authors names, and sorted the books into different types, fiction and non fiction. We love our corner and enjoy going in and reading our books at DEAR time.

P4

This week in Primary 4 we have been very busy planning our Library Corner for the competition which is being judged on Friday morning.

We started by drawing a plan of what we would like our corner to be.  We used our listening and talking skills to discuss what it should look like and what should be on the walls to encourage us to look after it and use it. We then put our ideas onto paper and drew a plan.  We had some super ideas which were then discussed within the class and we made a list of the ones we could do on the board. We then got to work. We all worked cooperatively and made book covers, talked about our favourite authors and books, we made book ends for the shelves and made our own library.  We set it around the theme of the BFG by Roald Dahl which is our new class novel. We hope to add to it to keep it exciting and fun to use!  Today was all about being creative!

Coffee Morning Primary 4

This week we have been busy working on our coffee morning. We had an assembly on Monday telling the class all about MacMillan and what we have been learning in the class. We were making posters and invitations to advertise it.

This morning Friday we had our coffee morning for parents, a dress down day and cake sale. We will let you know how much it raised next week! Lots of cakes were sold.
