P4/5 Jigs and Reels

Recently in Primary 4/5 they have taken part in something called Jigs and Reels. Some of the pupils put together a little paragraph either in pairs or separately.

“We had a visitor at school, her name was Jane and she taught us all about Jigs and Reels. Jane also taught us how to do the slip step.”

“In Jigs and reels there was a lady called Jane. She taught us how to do Simon’s dance. It was really hard. We were in groups of eight. The music was really fast but I got the hang of it. We were in shapes and had to keep it in the eight steps. We also had to keep our heels off the ground. Jane told use how to do the slip step.”   By Carrie

Nicole, Ellie, Lily and Charlie all made up a dance called the Twirly Whirly dance this is the steps to their dance

1st we all went to the side then forward and backwards.

2nd we all gathered up in to a circle and went round and round and round.

3rd We split up and did a twirl and then we got a partner and span round together.

4th We got back in a line and one after the other did the floss.

5th One after the other stopped doing the floss.

6th We all hugged and then stopped.

Everyone in the class really enjoyed being part of the lesson.  They all learnt a lot and hope that the technique will really help them in future dancing routines. The class all worked really hard and would love for it to happen again!

 

 

 

 

 

 

 

Operation Safety !!!!

P7 recently went to  operation safety . There we were helped by the police, the fire brigade, the paramedics and Scottish Power to be safe with the  internet , fire , fire works and being safe around power lines ! We learned about the recovery position (airways,  breathing and pulse or circulation). We also learned about fire hazards ,  how to be safe around fire works and also how to be safe around power lines!

Primary 7 had a great day and developed their skills at keeping themselves safe!
