Hi all,
Hope everyone enjoyed the extra hour we gained this weekend! P6 should be bright and eager, ready to learn this week!
Information
*HOCKEY on Tuesday 30th October* for ten pupils. These children have been selected to represent our school at a tournament. However, it was such a hectic week that we never managed to get the permission slips home so these will be given out on Monday and must be returned on Tuesday. Many thanks.

Homework
Reading – Most, not all, children have reading homework to do at home. On Tuesday, children will be given home a reading journal to accompany their book which will involve book related homework tasks.
Spelling – children will copy down their new list on Monday.
Numeracy – Sumdog Challenge ( Time Challenge)
Topic – For the next 2-3 weeks our topic is general science skills. Last week, we set up an experiment to find out the absorbency of three types of cloth. The core skills included planning, fair testing, measuring, observing, recording and concluding. In our writing lesson this week, we will write up our findings.
Peer Mediation – Ms Brown, the school’s Educational Psychologist, will be working with P6 to train them to become peer mediators. An information letter will be posted here soon but it basically involves exploring feelings and how best to deal with conflict between friends.
PE – Tuesday and Thursday – Developing netball skills
French – Miss Dickson returns from University and will revise French with P6 and develop their speaking/ writing skills further over the course of this term
Thanks to everyone who donated a tombola prize for the Halloween party this week.
Thanks for your support,
Miss S Brunt
