Category: Primary 4 Blog

Primary 4 have been practising group work skills. Recently, they were given bamboo sticks, chalk, pompoms, and coloured mats and in small groups they were tasked with creating a PE game. Once they had created their games, they got the chance to play and practise, then they taught their game to the rest of the class. Everyone got the opportunity to play everybody else’s game. The children were using and improving their listening, talking, PE, creativity, cooperative and social skills!

As part of maths week, P4 were lucky enough to visit the Museum on the Mound, to learn all about money.

We learned about how money used to be stored in banks, what items were used as forms of currency in the past, as well as in other cultures, and we created our own banknotes. The children were all very interested and asked lots of great questions.

As part of our literacy topic of Poetry, we visited the Poetry library on National Poetry Day! (5.10.23)

We listened to poems in English and Scots language, and got the chance to write our own animal poems in the shape of the animal. They were fantastic!

Hello,

Your homework this week is to practise your spelling words and complete the place value and addition maths task below.

Your spelling words are written in your jotter (or on paper if you forgot to return your homework jotter). They are: fight, light, might, night, right, sight and tight.

We thought of more words with the igh pattern in class. You can include them in your spelling practise if you like!

Please return homework jotters and book box books on Thursday 12th October.

We will change our books again after the October break.
