STEM

Hello everyone! 

We have been learning about types of energy and will be investigating kinetic and potential energy. As part of this we will have a STEM challenge in which we will require junk/recycling to help up with creating a ball run. 

If you have any cardboard boxes, kitchen roll tubes, plastic piping etc. then we would be grateful if you could bring those items in over the next couple of weeks. 

Thank you, 
Mrs McLean

STEM Lesson

Hello everyone,
Room 7 are learning all about energy in science this term and we are going to be creating a marble run as part of STEM looking at the different types of energy used.
If anyone has any old cereal boxes, toilet roll tubes, cardboard that you would be able to donate for Room 7 to use this would be great! 
We will be doing this on Friday 21st November
Thank you 
Miss Spence

Reading Books Home Today

Dear All, 

Everyone has been issued with a reading book to read tonight and bring back tomorrow. A few children in Wonderful Wonkas don't have a book because we are short. They will get a turn at taking the book home tomorrow. 

We use them in class to answer questions, please make sure they are kept in school bags after reading. 

Thanks Miss MacVey

Information

Good afternoon,

Due to it being a 4-day week there is only a literacy task for homework.  It is a double-sided worksheet reinforcing our two new sounds of 'm' and 'd'.  Please also use your sounds and common word flashcards to reinforce all prior learning. 
Some children will be given the ‘ar’ sound home to revise and a new reading book.

I want to share some websites that you can use at home to reinforce teaching and learning.   These websites are Doorway Online and  Topmarks both have a variety of Literacy and Numeracy resources including letter and number formations.

With Nativity and School Show rehearsals coming up the hall is unavailable for PE.  We will aim to go outside on our usual PE days if the weather is suitable.

Room 2 would like to invite you to come into our class on Monday the 24th of November at 2:00-2:40 to join us in our Literacy work as we are all receiving our Book Bug Bags and will be doing activities in class using these.  We hope you can make it.

Thanks
Mrs Jolly
