We had our second set of session of maths week Scotland outdoor learning this week. P5 -P7 all participated.
Class teachers also carried out a variety of actives with their classes over Monday and Friday.
P 1 and 2 Outdoor Learning
Today in school, we used a Maths Week Scotland resource as our starting point. We looked at how shape is used in art work and we looked specifically at the work of Kandinsky. We then transferred this to the next steps in our learning about 2D shape by learning about vertical lines of symmetry. We then followed this up with our own creative work during some outdoor learning. Mrs Howie
P2/3
How many different ways can you fit 4 dominoes in a box? Well done P2/3 finding lots of different ways. Mrs Mclean
P6
Using digital cards to create the largest/smallest number and estimating how many star jumps they could do in one minute then counting and comparing. Mrs Lumsden
Nursery and pupils from P1 and P1/2 participated in outdoor maths sessions today as part of Maths Weeks Scotland. These sessions were funded through grants received by the local authority and a contribution from school. Parents joined us for nursery and P1 sessions. Thank you to those of you that managed to come along and join us. The children all had a great time counting, sorting, measuring and sharing the learning together.
Attached is a booklet that may also be of interest as a follow-up to the sessions.

P1 were all busy in art today while P2-P7 had their Fun31 time. The children were listening to follow instructions and beginning to creating their own Gruffalo character. These will finished next week so more pictures to follow.
P1 enjoyed the lovely outdoor weather working on their counting skills with a partner by collecting items and recording how many.
Primary 2 went for a walk in the local community today to identify different types of houses. This walk supported classroom learning about houses and homes. Mrs McLean was delighted with the knowledge displayed by the children when looking at different houses.
Day 5 Christmas Songs are from P4/5 and P5. We hope you enjoy.
There are 2 different versions of P4/5 video the reason for this was on the first day of recording, several of the children were absent(you will notice smaller class size)and we wanted to try and include as many of the children as possible.
Day 4 Christmas Songs are from P3/4 and P3. We hope you enjoy.
Day 3 Christmas Songs are from P6 and P2. We hope you enjoy.
