It has been so exciting welcoming all the children back to school this week. Everyone has been very excited to be in their new classroom, getting to know each other as a class and getting used to all of the classroom routines.
We will send an update as soon as possible with PE days as we are still waiting for these to be confirmed. We take our learning outdoors every day so please make sure that you have a waterproof jacket with you each day as we just never know what the weather will do!
In Primary Four we plan to share our Reflective Friday via Teams in future but as the new class is still being set up on Teams please continue to look at the Blog for information next week and we will keep you posted here for now.
On a Friday we plan to share:

This week’s spelling patterns are below if you’d like to work on these at home. We do a dictation activity using these words/patterns each Friday. Please feel free to add words of your own; it isn’t just about learning a “list” of words but understanding how words are built up and spelt.
Team Jewel: the oi sound for example, coin, join, oil, point, boil, foil, soil
Try to make sure that you can read, recognise and spell these words.
Team Gold and Team Treasure are both working on adding ed endings (where it sounds like t is being added).
Team Gold list (and Team Treasure core list): rocked, asked, blinked, bumped, reached, looked, baked, hoped, splashed, joked
Team Treasure Challenge list: walked, talked, typed, punished, attacked, switched, laughed, wrapped, practised, escaped
Tricky words: continue to spend time revising words that you are having difficulty with.
