We have had a great week listening to our class talks. They have ranged from baking to biking to riding. The standard of the talks was excellent with us struggling to give some people a next step. We will finish the final 5 next week.
In literacy circle we are really enjoying our novels, with only 2 people not rating their book 8/10 or above. Everyone really participated fully , well done.
In maths, we continued with decimal numbers and making links to our environment. We are going to continue doing mental fractions work for the next few weeks, as some of us still don’t feel we could give ourselves a green yet.
There was great excitement when Mrs Hutton came to ask us who we would like to have as a buddy in the current Primary 1. She will do her best to pair us but some of the P1 pupils were chosen at least 20 times! We will really need to set a good example as we are getting to meet up with them when P7 go to camp.
In art, we looked at the modern artists, Allison Young and Scott Naismith and how they used colour in their beach scenes. We had a lot of fun trying this with pastels ( and mess).

We have been discussing Linlithgow Transition’s competition to ban plastic straws from the town and have been designing posters. We feel very strongly about this issue and want to help.
In science, we completed our topic on light by looking at rayleigh scattering. Please ask your child ” why is the sky blue?” .
