This grid provides different activities to help learners practise their times tables in different ways.  We recommend using 2-3 activities a week for each times table, however if you wish to do more then that is great.  Your teacher will let you know which times table to practise each week.

There are also fun online games to help improve the speed of your times tables recall, such as Topmarks ‘Hit the Button’ and ‘Daily 10’.

Have fun!

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:

How to perform poetry – BBC Teach

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!

Primary 4 staff would like to wish everyone in P4 and their families a Merry Christmas and a Happy New Year!  We look forward to seeing you next year.

Primary 4 will be learning 3 songs for the virtual Christmas concert which is filming very soon (for p4 it is Friday 10th December).
