It’s been another busy term for P4K!

In literacy, we are nearing the end of this term’s class novel “The Day the Screens Went Blank” by Danny Wallace. In our bug club reading programme, we have been reading non-fiction and fictional texts to develop our comprehension skills. We have become more confident in rephrasing reading questions to structure our written answers. In extended writing, we have learned about onomatopoeia and used these types of words in our Bonfire acrostic poem. We then completed a non-fiction report on the eatwell guide linking to our HWB topic on eating healthily and having a well-balanced diet. Our next steps in learning is to become more confident writing main points and chapter summaries in reading. In writing, our next steps are to continue working on sentence openers and learning more about apostrophe rules.  

In numeracy and maths, we have been learning about written division methods and have also revised some of our learning on 3D shapes from Term 1. When learning about division, some learners have been sharing amounts into groups while others have been thinking about the role of the remainder in written division calculations. To revise our learning on 3D shape, we made 3D shapes from 2D nets using card and by carefully applying our cutting, folding and gluing skills.

Across the curriculum, we worked in groups to sort food items into their food groups and have developed our sketching and shading skills in Art. In PE, we have been learning about individual and paired balances in gymnastics. In music, we have been learning to play along to different sets of rhythms with drum sticks and have been playing the notes to different tunes on glockenspiels. We have also been learning our Christmas show songs with the rest of P4 and P7 and can’t wait to perform!

Please take a look at some photographs of our learning tasks below.

Term 2 - Learning Targets

September 2025 

P4K have had a busy start to term 1 and have covered lots of learning. 

We have completed some of our learning targets for term 1 and learners have made improvements in their use of punctuation, paragraphing and use of adjectives when writing diary entries and imaginative stories inspired from our class novel topic “The Boy Who Grew Dragons” by Andy Shepherd. 

In numeracy and maths, we have covered and met our learning targets in addition, subtraction and 2D and 3D shape. As we approach the end of term 1, we will be learning more about multiplication and concepts involving analogue and digital time conversions, the language of time and calculating time durations. 

You will see some of our key learning in the literacy and numeracy wall display pictures below before we were required to move into a new classroom. Thank you P4K for managing these classroom moves so successfully!

In PE, we have been playing a variety of invasion games, discussing different team tactics within an invasion game, and developing our throwing and catching skills. 

In art, we have been using different materials and textures to create artwork based on our class novel. Recently we used card to first create a woven pattern and then we placed a carefully cut out silhouette of a dragon on top. See below!
