In grammar we have been focussing on adverbs. P5-7 had to hunt around the room to find the Christmas sentence and make it more interesting by adding an adverbs. Everyone produced fantastic sentences – well done!

This week for spelling P5-7 have been creating their own spelling board games.

There has been many wonderful ideas discussed, and some great board games produced!

Primary 1 have been busy counting the forward number sequence to 30.  We have to

concentrate really hard to remember the number that comes after 29.

We have also been practising the backward number sequence from 10.  We are really confident

with this and have now started practising counting back from 20.  This is something we will work

on and by the Christmas holidays we will be much more confident when counting backwards.

Primary 7 have been busy decorating the school Christmas tree. They worked really well as a team

and the tree is looking fantastic – well done, Primary 7!

 

 

 

 

 

 

 

 

 

 

 

 

 

 

 

 

 

 

 

 

 

This week Primary 5-7 have been busy taking part in some festive talking and listening activities with Mrs McClymont. The children were given the challenge to make their own Elf Juice. They had to accurately measure out and add the different ingredients to their bottle, then design a label along with a catchy slogan to advertise their Elf Juice. Finally the children presented their juice to the class.

 

 

 

 

 

In class we have been exploring the religion Christianity and the true meaning of Christmas. After making our Christmas stories last week, today we carried out some research to find out what different Christmas objects symbolise to Christians at Christmas. It was very interesting to find out what the different items represented and enjoyed discussing what we found out.

 

 

 

 

 

 

We have been working very hard on our spelling this week. Each group

completed a different activity to practise their spelling words and common words.
