Happy new year everyone! Primary 7 have a had a good start to term 3. Read on for more information on what we’ve been doing.
This week we have been celebrating Vision and Values week. On Wednesday we looked at our school values and linked these to the UN Convention on the rights of the child. We also did a really fun activity where we had to draw an emoji which described each value. Have a look at our Values poster on our class learning wall to see what we came up with! On Thursday we looked at our school vision. We split the vision up in to 6 parts and each group took a part. We had to brainstorm what it meant to us. This was good as it allowed us to really pick apart our vision and understand what it means. We recorded this in our talking book so make sure you look at what we created the next time you visit our classroom. After this task we used what we’d come up with to draw a picture of what our vision looks like and means to us.
As well as celebrating Vision and Values week we also did some writing. On Wednesday we a recount of our Christmas Holidays. We tried to focus on using similes and metaphors. This was quite difficult at first but when we practiced making some up as our starter task it got a bit easier.
In maths we did an assessment question. This was actually only one question but it took a long time to work it out! In the question there were lots of different things which we had to think about including calculating money, rounding, percentages and estimating. We enjoyed doing this question as it was different from the assessments which we’ve done before.
Finally, we started discussing plans for our new class charter and created posters to present our idea to the class. We will let you know what our new class charter theme is once we’ve voted next week.
Have a good weekend!
