‘Today we were constructing 3D shapes to recap on our knowledge of measurement. I really enjoyed it because it was 3D and it was really cool. I made 2!’ A was our paparazzi today 📸
This week we are working on creating a class word bank of different autumnal words. We really enjoyed working together on different spellings and coming up with wow words. We then took part in an autumn story challenge and shared our stories with our peers 🍁🍂🎃👻
Yesterday we were introduced to Media Studies 🎬🎥 Instead of just watching a film right through, we paused, discussed and analysed it. We then completed some comprehension questions and really thought about hidden meanings of lyrics and scripts ⭐️⭐️⭐️
As part of Maths Week Scotland, we combined Technology, Art and Maths to create two separate pieces. The first an art piece inspired by Okuda San Miguel to create this colourful geometric art. The second piece was a poster about a famous mathematician which we worked on in pairs ➕➖➗🟰🧮
Mrs Coyle gave us each a graphic novel to expose some of us to a new genre. We headed for the outdoor classroom and lots of giggles, reading and rolls down the hill later…. some of us realised we really like this kind of book 😊📚💥🦹🏽♀️
We continued with cricket this week and used all the new skills learnt from our inputs with Active Schools 🏏 We completed some practise throwing before moving onto a game!
In IDL we went back to Circus Maximus and explored spectator events. We then worked in groups to construct models of chariots and raced them. The buzz in the classroom was fantastic and we were so encouraging and supportive of each other 😁😁😁
Today in maths we were deepening our understanding of decimal places. We worked as a class and then individually to create our own shopping lists and find our totals ➕➖🛒🛍️
Today we teamed up with P5 in Outdoor Learning to complete some leaf transfer art. We had a practise before creating a lovely leaf art card for someone special 😊🍁🍂
Today we used the reading skill of inference and applied it to our Health and Wellbeing lesson. We worked in pairs and used implied and stated information from our class novel to complete the Emotion Works cogs for the main character ⚙️ We then discussed and decided on our own regulation strategies.
A huge thank you to Jen and Johnny at Active Schools for their Cricket input today!! We learnt over arm and underarm throwing, played games trying to hit the wicket and even got to check out a full cricket kit! 🏏
We have been working very hard on our Vice Captain speeches over the last 2 days. Celebrating our skills and qualities, considering how they will impact our house if we were a Captain and thinking about the changes or introductions we would make 🔵🟢🟡🔴
Our first 2 weeks in P6 have been very busy with iPad day, personal choice for PE, team work and a book study! We’ve settled back into school life really well demonstrating maturity and determination! ⭐️⭐️⭐️
