On the 14th of October it was just a small class, us and Mrs Magee. We made some pumpkin art inspired by a Japanese artist called Yayoi Kusama who liked to use dots in her work. We used chalk pens to do the outline of the pumpkin and our finger to do the dots.
Now that it is the holidays we will not upload for 2 weeks. Happy holidays. See you in 2 weeks.
From Kirkgunzeon Primary
Every Wednesday we have Altogether Time with Palnackie and Colvend, one of the things we do together is health and Mrs Graham from Palnackie teaches us. We are in three different groups, they are P1-2, P3-4 and P5-7. We are all learning about our feelings and how we can help ourselves and others when we are dealing with difficult situations. P1-2 are learning about a character called Zippy who helps them to understand their feelings. P3-4 are hearing stories about a character called Apple and they are learning about all the different feelings we have and how we can help each other when we have big difficult feelings. In P5-7 we do passport which is about emotions and dealing with them. Every week we get a page of comic and have to talk about it and we do tasks which help us understand our feelings. It is very good fun and we all look forward to reading the next comic.
This P1/2 warming up in the hall.
We have 5 new P1 pupils at Kirkgunzeon Primary. The news group have interviewed the new P1’s to find out what they think of their new school.
The school dinners are going down well with all the new pupils. Isabella, Levi and Sophie all like the fish and chips on a Friday.
Agnes told us she likes learning new things. Nathaniel’s favourite thing to do is maths and Isabella enjoys playing with her friends. They do lots of activities including painting, building, drawing and learning their sounds. Playdough is very popular with them all.
We are pleased to report that all the new P1’s like being at school!
P4 have been making a power point about the Vikings. What they had to find out was where they came from, why they came to Scotland/England. While p2 made a poster. Also for the power point we have been researching about Viking home life, and learning about how they lived, who they lived with and what their houses were like.
We also looked at some Viking artefacts which were a cup a mask and a necklace. The cup was used to drink out of, the necklace what was for young people and finally the mask was used to scare away the ghosts.
Wellbeing Wednesday is every Wednesday of school term. Wellbeing Wednesday is a day where you are encouraged to bring in fruit or vegetables to school for snack. You can bring in up to 3 pieces of fruit or vegetable, but each piece of fruit or vegetable MUST be different. You get 5 house points for each piece of fruit or veg.
P1-4 have been doing some science . We were testing which things dissolve in water. We tested coffee grandalas , rice , flower salt, stock cube and cornflour .We learned that soluble means that it would dissolve and insoluble meant it wouldn’t dissolve.
On Monday we did the final part of our Teddy in the park. As you may know last week we wrote about our predictions. This week we carried out the investigation.
First we put different fabrics over a cup and put a rubber band around it to hold the fabric down. Then we squished 5 bits of water over each cup to see which one was the most waterproof. The one which leaked the most was not very waterproof.
