As Class 11 have just completed writing their final touch down of a Newspaper Report I wanted to share a glimpse of the planning process.

The children worked in pairs using the chrome books to gather factual information on a famous volcanic eruption, ensuring that they investigated and explored the 5 w’s- who, what, where, when and why!

I am so excited to read the finished articles! Well done everyone, you have worked incredibly hard over the last 3 weeks!

Class 11 have been busy in Maths this week where they have done a carousel of different activities focusing on ordering and comparing decimal numbers as well as solving monster problems!

Well done everyone on supporting, encouraging and coaching one another. What great skills to have!

Class 11 had a great start to the new half term by visiting Magna!

The children were blown away (literally) in the Air pavilion, seen the wettest water known to man in the Water pavilion, warmed up by the Fire pavilion and collected different types of rock in the Earth pavilion.

More photos are to follow!

Thanks,

Miss Laing

Thank you so much to all of the parents and carers who attended our family learning session this afternoon and for the materials donated.

The children had a great time creating their wheeled vehicles based on their designs from earlier in the week.  They used a range of recyclable materials along with tape, string, glue, paint, foil, axles and wooden wheels plus anything else they could find in our art cupboard!

It was great to see such fantastic team work and have such an amazing learning atmosphere in the classroom.

Thank you once again for all your support.

In English today, class 7 worked in collaborative groups to put together an information page about bikes and label the different features that they could see, such as subheadings, pictures, facts and bullet points. We then discussed what went into each section of the text and summarised the main points of each part.  

Fantastic work class 7!

Well done to Ava who has achieved three medals in her dancing last weekend. We are all proud of you Ava! Keep up the hard work!

Today we started our theme lesson with a quiz on the Titanic. Children had to discuss whether or not they thought the statements shared with them were true or false. The children were really hooked into today’s learning and were desperate to discover whether or not their quiz answers were correct.

Class 10 love learning about the Titanic and they can’t wait for their next theme lesson.

Class 5 have had a fabulous afternoon making vehicles in family learning. We had some great models! A huge thank you to all the adults that came to help this afternoon you were amazing!

Thank you

This afternoon, Class 6 have been turning their wheeled vehicle designs into the finished product.

The children have made some awesome vehicles and had so much fun making them.

Well done Class 6 for your amazing work and being Have-a-go Henry’s & Can-do Colin’s all afternoon. Thank you to the parents/carers for coming in and helping.
