• Room 2!

  Room 2 have been settling back into class and school routines after the Christmas break. We have enjoyed catching up with our friends and teachers and are looking forward to the term ahead. For writing, we read a fantastic story called ‘The Dot’. It is about a little girl who believes she cannot draw. However, after drawing a dot on her page, it begins a journey of creativity.

• Another week in Room 6

  Happy Friday! This week in Room 6 we have been learning the ‘ou’ phoneme (found, sound, mouse, house).

They have a 3D effect, as we used cardboard to separate the snowman’s layers. They have been getting lots of compliments from people as they pass by our class.

• Room 9 Hockey

  Our PE day has changed to a Tuesday now because we are getting to do something very special. The primary 3 and 4 classes are getting to do hockey as part of their PE this term. Our other PE day will stay the same. For hockey we got to meet proper coaches from Uddingston Hockey Club and their names were Emma and Ruairidh. First of all they taught us how to hold a hockey stick correctly and we were shown how to move the ball around the gym using the stick. You are not allowed to use the curved side …

• People Who Help Us – The Police 👮👮‍♂️ 

  This week Room 3 enjoyed learning about the police and how they help us in everyday society as part of our IDL topic. We spoke about what people in the police wore (hat, hi-vis vest, boots, badge) and the type of equipment they carry (handcuffs, baton, spray, walkie talkie). We also had a chat and watched a short video about where police officers work, what vehicles they use and the use of police dogs. We found this very interesting! As part of our play leaning, opportunities were provided to design your own police badge, colour the police person/car, be a …
