Welcome Families of P4A

P4A have been learning about lots of new things this week… We have been super busy!

This week we started off our new writing genre which is descriptive writing. Primary 4A have been learning the best ways to describe what we see, feel, smell,touch and hear whilst working a lot outdoors this week. We have been using our senses to help guide our writing and are very excited to continue this writing topic.

Tiwa- “I liked describing my friends and family when we did our starter task”

P4A have also created some beautiful art work related to our visit to the Riverside Museum last week. They are a very creative and talented class!

In Maths, P4A have continued to develop their money skills and addition and subtraction. P4A are showing a great understanding of the money that we have in our society. I hope that P4A can help their families if they are in the shops with their evolving skills.

This week is anti-bullying week and on Thursday pupils created some imovies, presentations and stop motion videos to showcase their learning. Everyone in our class shared some ways in which we can be good friends and always ensure that everyone in our class is included.

Alicja-“ I love working on the ipads and making fun things”

P4A have been looking at lots of countries across the world and have also completed some research tasks based on a country of their choice. Some pupils chose countries that they have relatives from/ they are from and therefore really enjoyed learning about the heritage.

Linda- “I really loved learning about Slovakia and creating a poster with lots of facts”

We have also began looking at Magical Castle and pupils have researched lots of castles across the world and the history behind them.

Next week is book week for the whole school, P4A have begun reading the Lorax in preparation for upcoming tasks.

I would just like to say a huge thank you to all of the wonderful families of P4A for their kindness and generosity. I had such a lovely birthday being in class on Thursday and had a very special day with the children. Thank you all for all of the lovely gifts, they are so special to me.

Our hot chocolate winner this week is Tiwa. Keep up the hard work!

Have a great weekend everyone!
