Hello P3A families,

Here are this week’s highlights from the Blue table:

Alicja liked changing the clothes on her avatar from the Pixton app.

Grace and Chahiti said the highlight of their week was our writing of a recount about the healthy blueberry and banana warm pudding we made last week.  The children worked hard to include an orientation, sequence of events and conclude with a personal statement.

Rory loved music with Mrs Morrison were the children finished the music story of ‘A Midsummer’s Night Dream’.

McPaul, our new pupil, who we welcomed in to our St John Ogilive family this week, enjoyed listening to the story of Pentecost during religion lessons.  This Sunday, we will celebrate Pentecost.  The children recounted this story within a flame template.

My highlight was maths.  The children have been working hard to multiply 2 digit numbers this week by 2.  We challenged ourselves by multiplying 3 digits and then 4!

Congratulations to Jack, our hot chocolate award winner this week and to Chahiti, our Reading Champion!

Lead Learners were Jiade and Angel.  They had the important role of looking out for people who were demonstrating our school rules of being Ready, Respectful and Safe.  They also get to say something extra for the blog:

Jiade – “I liked Word Boost.”   The Word Boost story this week was called, ‘Eliot, Midnight Superhero’.  This will be up on Seesaw after school today for a further opportunity for the children to enjoy and listen out for the key vocabulary.

Angel – “I really liked drawing a dove.”  The children completed an instructional drawing of a dove.  This not only a symbol of the Holy Spirit (Pentecost links) but also of peace.  Our new mini topic is called, ‘Conflict Resolution in the Classroom.’  We will be further exploring the topic of peace for the remainder of May.

Just a reminder that we are off school on Monday and I will see you all back on Tuesday.  Enjoy the long weekend!

Regards

Mrs Brown
