A fun and exciting week in P4!

We cannot believe the summer holidays are nearly here. This has been the quickest year ever. Filled with lots of fun and laughter. This week was no exception.

We began the week with lots of hard work linked to our topic. For reading this week we focused on Nonfiction texts. We read all about Mo Farah and watched a video of him competing in the 2012 London Olympics.  We explored the different features of Nonfiction texts and read the passage very carefully to find information. We learned lots about Mo Farah.

In Art we looked at the Rio skyline. We could see the ‘Christ the Reedemer’ statue, many buildings of all different shapes and sizes and lots of mountains. We drew the Rio skyline on black paper, cut it out and placed it on top of our pastel backgrounds. This gave a super effect.

In Maths we have revised digital time using am and pm. He have a good understanding of this and becoming more and more confident with telling the time.

We were very lucky this week and got to try out Judo. It was great fun!!! We learned some good moves. Some of us are very keen to start Judo to learn more.

On Thursday we had a super day at Murrayfield. We even met 2 rugby players who came to chat to us and answered all of our tricky questions. We played great rugby games with some coaches. That really tired us out. Then we went for lunch and a wee relax. After that we split into groups to do the tour of Murrayfield. It was fantastic. We saw lots of their trophies and where the VIPs go to watch the match. What a view! That’s where we want to sit when we go. We saw where the TV broadcaster and radio broadcasters go. Paige, Chichi and Chloe even got to be a radio broadcaster. That was tough keeping up with what was happening. We had to speak so quickly.  Our favourite part was when we got to be the players. We went into the changing rooms, even got a pep talk from the captain and then walked out onto the pitch with O Flower of Scotland playing in the background. What an amazing feeling that was. Mrs Wassell said our behaviour was excellent. So much so she has promised us extra Golden time next week.

Have a great weekend everyone.

Mrs W and her little Minions.
