In Primary 5MK, we have been learning…

In topic we have been learning about islands, namely what it would be like to live on an island, comparing islands and designing our own custom island.

In literacy we have been reading and answering questions about playscripts.

In numeracy and maths we have been learning about function machines in order to explore algebra.  We have enjoyed working with letters in numeracy!

In HWB we have been learning about relationships and loss, and how to manage and deal with both.

In P.E. we have been learning different techniques for throwing and catching then we used our skills to play handball.

We have enjoyed…

I have had so much fun making our own islands.

I really enjoyed our last class novel – Asha and the Spirit Bird.  I am thoroughly enjoying our new class novel – The Island at the end of Everything.

I really enjoyed playing rounders as part of our P.E.  working on communication skills, game strategies and speed.

In drama i enjoyed improvising because i didn’t have to learn lines and i could say what i wanted.

What we are learning next…

We will be exploring direct speech in Literacy.

In numeracy we will continue to work on our fluency and accuracy in our times tables and we will revisit place value and the 4 operations.  We will also touch on word problems.

In P6b we have been learning all about Space.  The children wrote Science Fiction stories, they learned all about the planets and their moons and their order from the Sun.

The children used their devices to find out about the phases of the moon, and then they created a poster to show thier learning.

The children have listened to lots of different types of music to do with Space and now they have composed their own space music too!

The children created space art, and have researched all different types of techniques and ideas.

Lucas says”I have really enjoyed the space art and using the paints and chalks.”

Fia says “I have enjoyed looking at how space can be presented through different types of paintings.”

Good morning everyone
