Friday the 23rd of November

On Monday we had a visit from Cleopatra, Queen of the Nile! She answered the many questions we had about Ancient Egypt and left us a gift of figs.
Here are some of the photos of her visit:

We sorted the our class family's rubbish this week into different categories. Here are the sorted items. Some items fitted into more than one category.

16th of November

We wrote letters to our new pen-pals at Glaitness Primary School.  We hope they will write back.

We designed some recycling posters to encourage people to recycle. Next week we will be doing a recycling survey.

Here is M with her finished poster. Isn't it lovely?

We have been doing lots of taking away this week. Every day we are doing the 'time bomb challenge', we have ten sums to do in ten minutes before the bomb explodes! Next week we are going to get back into doing our individual maths cards as homework.

 Our new table groups are french animals: Les Poules, Les Cochons and Les Moutons. We are learning some French commands such 'rangez vous a la porte' (line up at the door) , 'allez' (go), ecoutez (listen) and 'lavez les mains' (wash your hands). Au revoir!

Pudsey Visit

Well we've been working away to try and get our Egyptians project finished and we are nearly there! You should be able to see our project books when the children take them home, there is a section for you to comment upon too! Also you will be able to hear our play a 'Glint of Gold' on CD very soon.
This week we got dressed up as Egyptians and took a photo for the front cover of our topic book. These are below for you to see.
We started our road safety work this week and also learnt the four Rs of recycling: REFUSE, REDUCE,  REUSE,  RECYCLE, we will be putting these into action in P345 from now on!

We have made a start to accessing our Glow email accounts by devising strong but memorable passwords. More work on this next week.

Wow - we look amazing!
