3 Challenges
- We are currently writing and rehearsing Christmas Raps which is tricky. We have been using online rhyming dictionaries to help us and trying to find the perfect back beat to rap along to.
- We are completing a short assessment on fraction in numeracy that is checking how well we remember how to create equivalent fractions, simplify fractions, find fractions of amounts and adding and subtracting top heavy fractions.
- In Emotion Works we were thinking of different synonyms for basic emotion words like happy, sad or angry. We learned that some words have different degrees of emotion and can be used in different contexts.
3 Enjoyable Moments
- We really enjoy Circle Time together where we play class games such as the Vampire Game, Grandma’s Knickers and Wink Murder. We use this time to talk about any feelings or issues we have and it’s a nice time to share news and achievements.
- Buddying is always a favourite time of ours. This week we helped our P1/2 buddies to make posters to advertise their Kindness Food Bank and displayed these around the school. We also hear them read and ask them lots of questions to help their understanding of the books and play games to teach them to take turns.
- For the Christmas raps we have been making masks. We have been using different craft materials and paper to make the most extravagant masks you’ll see!
Lead Learners this week were Dan and Harris W. They chose kindness, respect and ambitious to focus on this week and we are so pleased to see lots of names displayed under these headings.
