P4/5 Book Week

This weeks blog has been written by: Eilidh & Finlay.

This week it has been world book week and we have had lots of fun!  We started the week with looking at all of the areas of the curriculum and planning our own learning. 

We have listened to the full story this week which has helped us in our work.  

We wanted to find out more information about the author Roald Dahl so we carried out our own research on the internet and we found out lots of interesting facts.

We worked in groups to design board games based on Roald Dahl’s book ‘Charlie and the Chocolate Factory’ (Eilidh).

In art we have been learning to quill hearts for mother’s day.  The cards turned out amazing (Lily).   We also made cards by drawing around our own hands. The hand then held a bunch of flowers and we made the flowers 3d.  Also in art we designed sweetie inventing machines with lift-up flaps (Finlay).

In maths we designed chocolate bars with perimeters of 20 cm.  We also drew a lot of different nets for cubes then we built different 3d shapes using nets; these would be used to package Willy Wonka sweets.

On Thursday it was great as we dressed up as book characters (Holly).

Next week we are making model ‘Chocolate Factories’ so if you could please bring in some junk/recycling that would be fantastic.
