Primary 3- Sunshine Playtime
Primary 3 Fantastic Firelighter!
Today the Leafy Leaders were at the flint and steel firelighting station. Using the flint and steel needed effective technique and lots of determination. Only 3 members of the group succeeded in creating a spark and igniting the cotton wool to make a fire and one of them was our very own Liam! Well done Liam and look out Bear Grylls!
Primary 3 Reading Challenge Success
We are still enjoying reading a wide selection of books and thinking deeply about what we have learned. Here are a couple of Challenge Champions who have completed their Reading Mission! Well done!
Primary 3 Dundee Landmarks model making
We are looking at Dundee this term and as an introduction we created models from dough, Lego and other materials. We had the Law, three fantastic Tay Rail Bridges, (one even had the stumps of the old bridge sticking out the water),the Olympia and Dennis and Gnasher! We had some lovely drawings too.

Primary 3 Interviewing Mr Fox
Today we got into partners and took on the roles of interviewers and Mr Fox. We had some great questions and answers, some based on the story we have heard and some predicting what we think might happen next. We presented our interviews to the class. Louie and Lennox got a Mrs O ‘shout out’ for really getting into role and entertaining us all. Well done Primary 3, I’m really proud of you.
Our Exciting New RWI Bookbag Books

You may have noticed your child already coming home with one of our new and exciting RWI ‘bookbag’ books (and if not, they soon will be!) These books directly link to the RWI phonics storybook your child is working on in school and are specially designed for a family environment to promote and encourage reading for enjoyment and build understanding and speed when reading independently. The short video above has some information for parents about these new books. However, if you have any questions regarding these, please don’t hesitate to ask.
Our children deserve the best! As a school we have invested quite a sum of money into ensuring all children love to read both at school and at home and these books will help with this. We ask for your support in ensuring they are enjoyed, shared but also returned to school by the specified day (your child will know when this is). The books will be given to children in a nice new plastic wallet to help keep our lovely new reading material looking fabulous!  Enjoy reading them together as a family!
