Well done to this week’s confident presenters. Everyone got very good feedback from their classmates. Now we know a bit more about Star Wars, Tsum Tsums and teddy bears!

We primary 5 have been learning about things that burn and we had to get into pairs.We each got a sheet of newspaper and tried to think of ideas to make our sheet burn the longest.(We done this outside).The longest time was… 4 minutes 18 seconds!

p 3/4 have been learning about sea shore and were to find it in the word. In mate the people have been addition double digit by a double digit.

In p2 they have been learning about Katie Morag whilst starting this they have watched two short stories about it called “Granny Island”  and ” The Two Grannies”. After watching this they were to write out what happened in the two stories. I have talked two some of the primary twos and all of the have said that they love all the stories about Katie Morag and hope to continue.

P4/5 have been learning about different fractions this week…here is what the children had to say…

Ashleigh “I can work out mixed number fractions by counting how many whole ones can be made and how many are left over.”

Eilidh “I have learned about equivalent fractions and how to convert a decimal into a fraction.”

Meghan “I have learned that a sixth means one whole one cut into 6 equal parts. Like in a pizza.”

Kalley “I know how to find a fraction of a number now and I can use a fraction wall to work out equivalent fractions.”

We have worked hard on other things too…..

Kiara ” I have enjoyed learning the different spellings for the oa sound (oe, ow, oa, 0-e).”

Finlay “I have worked hard learning my lines for the school show. We have had rehearsals this week for the first scene for ‘Shakespeare on Trial’ and we have also had fun learning some of the accompanying songs.”
