Yay! P2-4 got to go outside for their Maths session today!
The pupils were split into teams; the Red Nosed Reindeers, the Blue Frosty Snowmen and the Cheeky Green Elves!
Using what they have been working on in class, the teams were set multiplication tasks. They needed to use their Rainbow Tables, investigate square numbers and tackle some Merry Mental Maths problem solving!
Back in class, the pupils had some time to self-evaluate their morning’s work. They even managed to each colour in their team’s mascot – by reading the colours which were written in French! What a multi-talented bunch of pupils we have!
Working out why square numbers are called…square numbers!
A little problem solving to start a Monday morning!
Logan and Gregor worked together really well!
Euan and Cameron take a break from the mind-boggling word problems!
Aah that’s why they are called Square Numbers then…..
Kirstie and Phoebe have got these Rainbow tables sussed!
On Friday 11th of December the whole school went a trip to see the pantomime “Jack and the Beanstalk” at Ayr Gaeity theatre. Having left Leswalt in the morning, they enjoyed a delicious lunch at the Stage Door Café in Ayr, before a wee wander round the shops and the performance. At half time, ice creams were provided and Phoebe was lucky enough to find a golden ticket – which allowed her the chance to go up on the stage and take part in some juggling!
The children all enjoyed the pantomime, accompanied by staff and some of their parents. The tickets and transport for the school children was very kindly paid for by the Parent council fundraising group, as a Christmas treat to all the pupils. And, Gillian from Leswalt Stores kindly donated a huge bag of sweets to enable every child to have a treat while they watched the pantomime.
Did they all have a good time? – “oh yes they did!!!”
Mrs Smith recently took Primary 1 a walk round Aldouran Wetlands. AS part of their STAR awards in wider achievement the children are expected to be able to say where the Wetlands are. So, one crisp December morning Mrs Smith and her happy little gang of p1 pupils went a walk to see for themselves. Have a look at the happy wee faces!
