Primary 4 have been learning how to stay safe when online and our school frequently share top tips to help us.  Here are 2 tips we have recently discussed:

All P4 classes have created a charter with ideas on how to be safe and smart when using Teams.  These charters will be on your class Teams page.

This year P4 will be learning the Scots poem ‘The Crocodile’ by J.K Annand to celebrate Robert Burns’s birthday.

We expect all learners to engage with the poem and attempt to read it to an audience (this does not have to be the whole class, it could be a small group or individual) by Friday 4th February.  There will be an opportunity for learners to put their name forward for the whole school Burns poem competition and one winner will be chosen from each class.  These learners will then participate in the whole school competition.

Here is a copy of the poem:

Here is a link to a video which helps explains how to perform a poem:

This information will also be available on your Teams page as well as a video of your class teacher performing the poem.

We are looking forward to seeing your performances and hearing your fantastic Scots!
