Dear All
This week in literacy we did the ‘ou’ exception sounds. We talked about our achievements at show and tell. We read in our groups and had personal reading time. Mrs McAlpine read us the ‘Lost Prince’, one of our Hamish McHaggis books. We listened to Mrs McAlpine reading out words and sentences and we tried to write them out with correct spelling and punctuation. We learned plurals and that words ending in ch, sh, x or s need an ‘es’ at the end if there is more than one. We added adjectives to our sentences and underlined them in blue.
In numeracy we were learning about money and how to give change. We went shopping in the classroom and bought your crackers! Don’t worry we used fake money and your crackers are still there! We split into 2 groups and used 2 balls to learn our times tables. We used the netbooks to practise budgeting on Sumdog.
In health and wellbeing we enjoyed Scottish Dancing and danced the ‘Grand Old Duke of York’, the Canadian Barn Dance. We also played bench ball in PE.
In learning across the curriculum we made our crackers for enterprise to sell at the Christmas Fayre. They look gorgeous and they will make a loud bang! We also went to see the Nativity performance, it was amazing!
Hope you have a good weekend!
