Dear Families,

In Topic this week, we have been looking at pictures of West Lothian in years gone by.  We discovered that the streets used to be much quieter, the rivers were used for swimming and that the schools had blackboards (I told the children this really was not that long ago).

In Maths, we have been continuing to work on multiplication.  If you could practise the times tables with your child at home, it would really help them to improve their speed of recall.

In literacy, we have been looking at the key features of an information report and next week we are going to try to write our own information report on Dragonfruit.  We are currently trying to find somewhere that sells them so that the children can give them a try.  If you see them anywhere, please let us know.

Learning Highlights:

Reyansh – I enjoyed learning how to multiply a 2 digit number by a 1 digit number.

Szymon – I enjoyed watching clips from the winter Olympics with Mrs Lafferty.

Daniel – I liked free writing Friday.  I wrote next chapter of my book called ‘The War’.

Alexa – I enjoyed playing games to practise my times tables with my partner.

Aiden – I liked making my poster for the Park Smart competition.

 

We hope you all have a lovely holiday weekend and we will see the children back at school next Wednesday.
