It has been a bit mixed up here over the last 2 weeks with lots of snow keeping us off school and then our heating broke so we were sent home again!

It was good to be back in school this week because it was the primary 6 Christmas party. We did lots of social dance. We danced the Flying Scotsman and Virginia Reel, the Circassian circle and the Military two step and some other dances too. You can see instructions for the dance at this website. We all dressed up in our fancy clothes and had a brilliant afternoon together.

One of the new things we have been using in our class is Brain Training on the Nintendo DS. Some of the other classes have already been using them and we were really looking forward to getting our turn.  We will use them most days after the holidays and we are looking forward to seeing if our brain ages are better than Mr Patterson!

Here at Clackmannan Primary   School has been closed because of the Snow. If it has been undisturbed the snow is 10 inches deep! We have all been very busy building snowmen. 😀 Now that we are at school we are all very busy catching up on our personal blogs. 😀  Here is a voki about enjoying the snow! 😀 [kml_flashembed movie="http://vhss-d.oddcast.com/vhss_editors/voki_player.swf?doc=http%3A%2F%2Fvhss-d.oddcast.com%2Fphp%2Fvhss_editors%2Fgetvoki%2Fchsm%3Dad5314b68297a6e49a8b2ab09c3c1825%26sc%3D3130476" width="300" height="400" allowfullscreen="true" /]

Hi everyone,

I hope you are all keeping busy at home. Unfortunately the school was closed today due to heating problems. Mr McLaren has put some links on the Clackmannan Primary website which will allow you to access some learning activities that you can do at home.
