In Maths we have been learning how to calculate basic time intervals using the 12 and 24 hour clocks. In addition to this we have also been learning to read different types of timetables and calculating how long it takes to travel from one point to another. We have also been looking at calendars and discovered they contain number patterns in the months and years. On Friday we challenged ourselves by taking part in BIG Maths and Multiplication quiz.
In Literacy we wrote imaginative stories, poems, newspaper articles and cartoon strips for our entries into the West Lothian Young Writers competition. We are all keeping our fingers crossed that we will have produced some of the winning entries this year!
In Reading we launched our Literacy Circle Groups and learned about all the different types of roles we will have each week. We are all looking forward to our first circle meeting on Wednesday.
In art we used some of our writing to make fake parchment documents which date back to the time of Mary Queen of Scots.
In Science we started to investigate different types of light sources and how it can be reflected.
