This week in Primary 6 we have been very busy doing lots of different activities. Our highlights are art, maths and writing. Read on for more information.
Charlie and Lewis: In art we drew a human heart because this is to do with our topic Pig Heat Boy. It was really interesting seeing all the different parts of the heart.
Charlie, Lewis and Joseph: In writing we wrote a newspaper report. We were writing about Cameron getting the pig’s heart. Joseph’s humorous headline was ‘Piggy Paradise’. He focused on alliteration in creating this.
Chloe: We moved on to playing and umpiring matches in tennis. It was really fun.
Lorena: Our drama was based on the GIRFEC indicator for September which is Safe. We talked about peer pressure and created a scene where someone was being peer pressured in to doing something they didn’t want to do.
Thomas and Lucas: In maths we have been doing place value, partitioning and rounding. We did an outdoor game of rounding which was a bit like piggy in the middle where 2 people had answers on a whiteboard and we had to run to the correct answer.
Preston: We have refreshed the daily mile and have decided to have a whole school competition where we have to try and run the furthest distance. Our first challenge is to run the distance it would be to get to America because that will be our next topic. So far as a class we have totalled up our laps and achieved 41 miles. Still 4193 to go!!!
Grace: We are still reading Pig Heart Boy and one of our novel study tasks was to imagine we were Cameron and write a message to an unborn brother or sister like Cameron did in his video diary for Alex.
Have a great weekend!
A great week in P6! Lots of opportunities to link your learning and challenge yourselves.
I am really excited about your daily mile competition!
Your drama sounds super too. It’s important to think through these issues and reflect on decisions and choices. I’m sure you approached this task with your usual mature attitudes. Well done.
Great! Well done p6.
