Week 5

In Literacy, we have been very busy spelling words with the long /e/ (ee/ea) sound. We enjoyed cutting up our spelling words into syllables and swapping our cards with a partner. We chose a character from the movie ‘Brave’ and described their appearance and personality. In reading, we have been focusing on the comprehension strategy – making connections.

In Numeracy, we have been focusing on adding a string of numbers. This week Pippa and Ella are sharing our learning with you. I have included a google slide of the addition strategy to aid discussion at home.

We have had fun learning about farming in Scotland and researching the farming year. We watched a series of video clips and worked with a partner to select facts from each video. Today, we have enjoyed celebrating Scottish Diversity Day. We talked about what Scotland meant to us and designed a new Scottish flag.
