March - April 2025

Primary 7 continues to be a busy time and we have lots to look forward to. We will be celebrating World Book Day with a variety of activities including a sponsored read, designing a bookmark and dressing up as our favourite book characters.

We will continue with our World Around Us topic, The Irish Famine which will also be incorporated through our literacy work as well.

Within Literacy we will have the opportunity to write a crime report based on a 'crime' that will take place within school, this is always great fun! Throughout this work we will continue to reinforce spellings, grammar and punctuation. Reading is also so important so please do encourage your child to read each night. Listening to your child read and asking them questions about their books is also very beneficial.

In Numeracy we will learning about sequences, algebra, 3D shapes, co-ordinates and data handling. We will also be reinforcing the terms factors and multiples. So much of this numeracy is dependent on good foundations in maths facts and times tables so it is important to keep practicing these at home.

Homework is very important and it does help the pupils so much so please encourage your child to complete their spellings, tables and reading each night. Education City is also an important part of their online homework so please ensure your child is engaging with these activities on a regular basis.

Please continue to check the main P7 page and class SeeSaw regularly for updates and photos of your child. 

Thank you for your ongoing support.
