Welcome to our P5D weekly blog.
We have had a busy week. In writing, we have been using what we have learned about the features of a description text to write a description of our school. We had to use present tense, pronouns, specific vocabulary and adverbial phrases.
“Writing was fun because we got to talk about our school and how the playground looks!” – Michelle
“It was fun because we got to write about the garden and the structure of the actual school!” – Ola
We have been working really hard to learn about and research Global Goals and have spent a lot of time working on this. We worked in groups to research a specific goal, make posters using our research and then put the information into a short movie to spread the word. We used I-movie to create the short video clips and had a movie premiere showing for our parents.
“It was really exciting to show it in front of our parents!” – Emily
“Using I-movie was really fun and I really liked it!” – Morgan
“I really liked doing I-movie because you got to share information that I had learned and it was fun getting to talk in the movie!” – Levente
“I really liked it because we could listen to everyone’s ideas and we got to be creative in our own videos!” – Hasan.
In maths, we have been learning all about algebra and solving equations using the four processes.
“It was fun getting to use of problem solving skills when we were solving equations!” – Calvin
“I think it was fun because sometimes it was challenging and it was fun to work the hard questions out!” – Levente
“In algebra, I now know what to do and it used to confuse me before now!” – Hasan
In PE, we have been preparing for sports day and participating in races. We used the track on the grass pitch and raced 600m.
“It was fun running!” – Ethan
“I liked racing but at the end it was hard to keep going because I was out of breath!” – Calvin
“It was very hard trying to keep up with Kasia because she was so fast but I managed to pass her near the end and I came 1st place.
Congratulations to Rhia for receiving our praise postcard! Rhia has been trying hard in all areas of learning but particularly giving 100% in the daily mile. Well done Rhia!
