This week, we have been very creative.
This week for topic we have been learning about Viking food. We made oatcakes using: porridge oats, melted butter, honey and apricots. Mark said “They tasted absolutely delicious”.
We have also been making presentations, using posters and Power Points. Ailie said “I liked doing it because we could show our work in front of the class.”
This week in maths we have been learning about Geometry. We have been looking at 2D and 3D shapes. Ryan B said “It has been enjoyable.” Adrin said “I want to learn more shapes. We know these new shapes: Tetrahedron, Triangular Prism, Hexagonal Prism, Pentagon, and a Sphere. We also had fun creating shape nets, in the shape of household objects.
We have been creating imaginative writing pieces about Viking sagas. This week we created a new story that had ourselves as a character, as well as our favourite Viking gods. “I thought it was a fun way to write because anything can happen.” Hannah
This week in PE we had a mini football world cup. Haseeb told us “we got to make our own team and the colour was the flag our bibs were the same as the different countries.” We have put in a lot of effort with our football skills and Camryn thinks “we might be saying goodbye to rounders for this week.”
This week we have also started our preparation to make our Holy Communion, and will continue on our faith journey next week.
Stay tuned for next weeks P4 news! Have a lovely weekend.
Miss Diamond and Primary 4 would like to wish Miss Crookston the best of luck for her future career as a teacher! She has been a privilege to work with and we certainly will miss her!
Louise – “This week we did food technology and made awesome oatcakes. We made these because the Vikings ate them.”
Lewis – “We used apricots, butter, oats, honey and cinnamon. I thought they tasted really nice.”
Krystian – “I thought it was great fun making the cookies. They were delicious.”
Mirren – “On Tuesday we did football with P4. We were practising our skills for the world cup next week. My team is Portugal!”
Lukasz – “On Monday we welcomed our new Depute Head Teacher Mrs Smith.”
Oliwia – “In IDL we have been learning what the Vikings ate. We learned that carrots used to be purple and white. WoW!”
Charlie – “We worked in trios to create a power point about Viking food. We learned how to put a background on the power point, insert pictures from clipart and the internet and change font size and style. I look forward to presenting my groups power point next week.”
Harley – “In Maths we have been learning about the properties of 2D and 3D shapes. We learned that 3D shapes had edges, vertices and faces. I know that a cylinder has 3 faces, 2 edges and no vertices.”
Daniel – “In literacy we have been learning how to use speech marks in our writing.”
Finlay – “In reading this week we focused on inference questions. We looked at pictures and had to think about what was happening in the picture.”
Have a wonderful weekend.

For our topic we have been learning about Viking Gods and we have shared all of the facts that we have learned during our show and tell. We learned that the last Viking battle in Scotland was in October, 1263. We learned this from Neve and Aoife who they shared their exciting experience of a trip to Vikingar in Largs with us.
Hannah enjoyed learning about the Viking Gods and particularly liked Freya. She is the God of love, beauty, fertility, and war.
Ailie enjoyed learning about Frey, who was the god of wind, water, sun, and harvest. He is also the brother of Freya.
We have enjoyed writing about the Vikings during story writing this week too. We have been writing our own Viking sagas, which Mark enjoyed because we were allowed to use our favourite Gods, or make one up using our imagination to be the characters in the Saga’s.
Haseeb enjoyed learning a new topic in maths. We have been learning about 2D and 3D shapes and thinking about their lines of symmetry. Jacob enjoyed exploring the different objects and identifying the names of the shapes. Aleksander enjoyed going on a shape hunt, looking for the shapes that match each description.
We really enjoyed PE this week! Charlie particularly liked football. We have been developing our balls skills and focussing hard on team work. We learned how to dribble. It is not as easy at it looks!
Jacob particularly liked working with his team mates during rounders and Haseeb thinks “ROUNDERS IS SO FUN!”
Finally, Evie enjoyed RE because we were thinking about the difference between wants and needs. We drew around someone in our group and stuck things that we need inside or body and things that we want on the outside. This helped us to decide what things to give up for our Lenten promises.
Have a lovely weekend and keep updated by following our blog, from Primary 4 and Miss Crookston.
