A big thank you to Jean a friend of Eve’s gran who very kindly sent us in Palm crosses for Easter. This week we have been talking about the Christian Festival of Easter and all the customs associated with it. The crosses provided a great discussion point when we explored this theme today. The children were so enthusiastic and earnest in their thoughts and their learning.
Good morning.
Children in Primary 1 are learning an Easter Poem to recite for our virtual Easter Assembly. Please ask your child about the actions which go along with this poem. Have fun practising!
A big thank you for all of those who have sent in their pirate ships. You are such a talented bunch,…….. we have some designers of the future in our mist that is for sure. I am still refining mine so don’t worry you have another week to get them into school for testing!!
The online reading books appear to be going well and I have just had a peek to see who has been doing their reading regularly. I am interested in your thoughts on this and please let me know if you haven’t been able to access. I see they are some pupils who have not yet been using this. Any problems please get in touch and we can sort something out.
Our grid has lots on it so this will take our learning up to Easter break. Once again the wee p 1 are amazing in their resilience and their learning and are working very hard and playing very hard to make up for all the days we could not be together in class. Thank you for your continued support. learning plan22.03.21

Thank you for your patience with me as I get used to assigning the books to the children. We have had a few questions and teething problems this week but hopefully as we become more familiar with using it things will settle down. I am not intending to replace books as I am a very avid reader and although I have a kindl I still love nothing more than a book. We use real books in class !
I am trying to provide a variety of texts for reading at home so the children get a bit of challenge . Please don’t feel pressure to read all texts every night….. but do please read daily . The children are doing so well with their literacy and their reading and writing skills improve each day. Please let me know what you think of this resource as I personally think it is a great way as it cuts down on missing books, forgotten books etc and allows the children a bit more choice. I will be interested at the end of the trial to hear your views as I would really like to get this a s a permanent resource. Happy reading.

Hi to everyone in P2/3,
I am so disappointed not to be working with you in class on Tuesday. I was looking forward to working with you all again.
I have attached the learning we would have been doing on Tuesday afternoon this week.
I hope that you all keep safe and well at home and I look forward to seeing you again in school.
P6/7 ~ First Day Back
Primary 6/7 were full of enthusiasm today and enjoyed getting back into the swing of school life again.
Today we settled back into our routines and took time to discuss our lockdown experiences. The pupils enjoyed discussing their likes and dislikes from the past few months and were able to talk openly about their feelings about the school return.
Spelling was our task this morning and art was on the timetable this afternoon. We started artwork which will be displayed around our community later in the month. Look out for these soon!
Overall, a great first day back. Well done everyone! We cannot wait to do it all again tomorrow.
