Leugh le Linda
Rinn sinn seisean còmhla ri Leugh le Linda an-diugh air Teams. Dh’ionnsaich sinn na samhlaidhean airson diofar bheothaichean, dh’èist sinn ri sgeulachd agus sheinn sinn òran ùra. Bha sinn air bhioran nuair a chunnaic sinn na sgoiltean eile.
We joined in with Leugh le Linda today for a live session. We learnt the signs for a few different sea creatures, listened to a story and sang a new Gaelic song. It was exciting to see so many other Gaelic classes from all over Scotland on our screen.

Exploring Numbers to 10
ELCC have been exploring numbers to 10. They are learning to recognise the numbers, count the dots and put them in order.
Music Making in P1/2
We listened to music called ‘The Storm’ by Benjamin Britten. After lots of practice with the instruments we made our own composition of the storm from our story about the Loch Ness monster. Can you hear the storm get loud and then quiet again? We explored different rhythms and tried to add that in too.

Buidheann Eco
Tha clas G4-7 ag obair gu trang airson ar t-seachdamh bratach Eco.
Le Pippa Hannett G5– Thòisich an clas againn a’ dol timcheall an raon-cluiche agus a’ faighinn a-mach an àireamh de sgudal a tha anns an raon-cluiche. As dèidh sin, smaoinich sinn air na tha sinn dol a dhèanamh airson an sgoil agus sgudal a’ cumail sgiobalta. Rinn sinn foirm air Google Forms airson clas 5-7 gus na beachdan aca fhaighinn. Rinn sin grafan a tha a’ sealltainn ar rannsachadh airson matamataig. Chan eil poileasaidh againn airson sgudal agus feumaidh sinn fear cruthachadh.
