This week P7 have taken part in numerous learning activities.

Maths and Numeracy

We have been learning how to calculate the fraction of an amount where the numerator is more than one. We have also been practising our four operations: add, subtract, multiply and division. We have been doing a 100 times table test where we were given 10 minutes to do it and solve as many calculations as we could. We have also been practising our maths skills using Active Learning.

Literacy 

In literacy this week we have been doing a lot of handwriting try to improve our presentation and join our letters. In writing we have been looking at haiku poems and creating our very own haiku about winter. In reading we have been enjoying ERIC time reading our own novel and the class novel ‘Hunger Games’. We were also learning about poems and poetry techniques such as personification.

Health and Wellbeing 

In P.E. with Mrs Howard we did a Snowman Challenge where we had to do activities to get parts to build our snowman. The skills we used were hand-eye coordination; literacy and creativity. We also practised the Gay Gordons dance in preparation for our Christmas party.

Any Other Business 

In science we learned about life cycles and what mammals are.

We also enjoyed our treat for achieving our Gold Sports Award which was a silent disco.

We watched our buddies perform the nativity and they did really well!
