What a wonderful sponsored walk today! We carried water containers to give us an indication of how difficult it is for people in Africa that have to walk to collect water everyday. Huge thanks to our helpers, this walk wouldn't have been possible without your support. 💕 #sciaf

We've been busy preparing for the Xmas Fayre next week. We've been using our knowledge of measurement and working collaboratively to make items to sell ... Make sure you visit our stall to buy a lovely gift that's been made with love! ❤️

A huge well done to this week’s star writers. We wrote some fantastic procedure texts this week. ⭐️✍️

After problem solving we then moved on to learning about the life of our patron saint, St. Francis Xavier. Here we are using the iPad to research. We then used Padlet to record and share our findings on the Smartboard. This was the first time we did this and we all worked very well! 🫶🏻

Yesterday we working in learning trios/quads to tackle problem solving. We used different strategies such as draw a picture and think logically. We also worked in the context of measuring capacity which is what we have been working on for maths this week. (Mrs B thought she took more photos 😞)

We have been learning about various units of measurement and the different equipment we can use to measure. We've explored cm & m, ml & l and today we explored g & kg (ask us what those letters mean) 😉 We're looking forward to putting this learning to good use to create items for the Xmas fayre

Turbo, our pet snail has gone on an adventure & he has been sending us postcards. He's been to Mexico & is now in India. He told us all about Diwali & we made some wonderful clay Diya lamps. These will look even better when we decorate them! We've written instructions on how to create them too ❤️

Thank you to everyone that came to visit room5 for our book gifting event. Please take time to look through this fabulous resource. We'd love to see any photos of you enjoying it at home #readwritecount #scottishbooktrust #readingforenjoyment

Today we discussed our prior knowledge of the country of India. We then learned some facts about the festival of Diwali. We used the clay to make our own Diya Lamps. We will paint them tomorrow. 🪔
