Learning Across the Curriculum<\/strong>
\nEvie, Adrin, Aidan, Zuzanna and Aaron.<\/p>\n

This week we have been working with Marty the\u00a0robot, we had to use a computer to\u00a0navigate\/programme him to do what we want. Some of\u00a0the options we had to choose from were Kick, Walk\u00a0Forward, Wiggle, Circle Dance and Walk Backwards. There is a video of Marty on our class Twitter.<\/p>\n

During P.E we split up into different groups of our\u00a0choice, Indoor Fitness or Outdoor Rugby. In rugby we\u00a0did passing work and contact games, and in fitness we\u00a0did Agility, Endurance and Strength.<\/p>\n

Learning in Literacy
\n<\/strong>Louise, Kacper, Shannon, Ethan, Levente<\/p>\n

This week in reading primary 7\u00a0have been reading Skellig ,its about a boy who moved house but stayed at the same school but found a strange creature in the garage. We had to answer challenging questions using our higher order thinking skills. Primary 6 have been reading Kensuke’s Kingdom and learning about sailing around the world! It sounds like a big adventure and we can’t wait to read the next chapter of our book.<\/p>\n

In writing this week we worked in groups to create Halloween poems. We had to think of our own rhyming scheme and use lots of figurative language that we have been working on. When we finished we typed up our poems and we also recorded them and added sound effects.<\/p>\n

This\u00a0 week\u00a0in Math\/numeracy the primary sevens had\u00a0<\/span>Mrs<\/span>\u00a0McDonald and we did bar modelling. Tt was very hard and confusing.<\/span><\/p>\n<\/div>\n

\n

On Wednesday we learned how to use a compass. We drew circles with\u00a0<\/span>a<\/span>\u00a0 compass. We were given the radius or diameter to help us.\u00a0<\/span><\/p>\n<\/div>\n

\n

On Th<\/span>ursday<\/span>\u00a0<\/span>we\u00a0 did<\/span>\u00a0adding and subtracting strings of numbers<\/span>\u00a0and calculating mentally.<\/p>\n<\/div>\n

\n

Teamwork<\/strong>: we used team work when programming Marty the robot together we had to use our individual skills in a group to program Marty to do different things and actions such as\u00a0dance,\u00a0kicking a ball and many other commands.<\/span><\/p>\n<\/div>\n

\n

Creativity:<\/strong> we all used creativity when writing our Halloween poems. we had to come up with rhymes connected to Halloween to make a great Halloween poem. We then added our voice to a recording and added sound effects to give it a\u00a0more Spooky\u00a0effect.<\/span><\/p>\n<\/div>\n

\n

Perseverance:<\/strong> We used the skill of perseverance to create lots of circles with a compass with many different diameters and radius. Many of these did not match the given radius or diameter so we had to keep going and trying.<\/span><\/p>\n<\/div>\n

\n

Higher order thinking skills<\/strong>: We used these skills to find in depth answers to our reading question the amount of evidence and quotes gave us marks. To get high marks we had to find many different things to prove our answer.<\/span><\/p>\n<\/div>\n","protected":false},"excerpt":{"rendered":"
