We are buzzing this week about our new learning about some very important insects, bees. We are starting a mini topic investigation all about bees and have been asking the children about what they want to find out. Our learning will have a focus on or eco system and the importance of these busy bees. I have posted our plans for this week. Can I ask you to refrain from adding the smiley to your reading of home readers as it appears when you do this the book is no longer available for a second or subsequent read and the children should of course be revisiting the text every night. Any problems with on line access please let me know and I can send home a hard copy .
We continue to amazed at the adaptability of these young people and their appetite for learning. Keep up all the good ways you are encouraging them at home. The term is racing through , too fast for my liking as they put a smile on my face everyday.
Primary 6/7 have decided to raise funds in aid of the British Heart Foundation. We have been learning a range of different skips, using some very fancy footwork during our PE sessions! After our hard work practising in the sunshine this morning, we designed our advertising posters, continuing to enjoy the outdoors. We have included our key information on the posters, with information on how to sponsor being shared next week.
This term Primary 5 will be working towards their John Muir Award. To achieve this award they need to spend 25 hours connection with, enjoying and caring for a wild place. Their wild place will be the Mote and Dalmellington. Our journey towards the John Muir Award will take place every Monday afternoon for the remainder of the school year. Therefore, can Primary 5 dress for an outdoor day on a Monday as well as a Thursday. P.E will continue to be on a Thursday. I will be posting pictures of our journey on my twitter page which is @MissDonnelly16 as well as on the Weekly Round Up!
We will be heading outdoors tomorrow for a range of PE and Literacy activities tomorrow, Friday 23rd April. The forecast is to be a lovely, sunny and warm day. Please pop some sun cream on before you come to school and ensure you are dressed appropriately for PE! Thank you!
Our PATHS Pupil of the Day received lots of kind compliments from his peers today. A super star!
We also had great discussions around the steps to help us solve problems. We worked together to create a plan for calming down and solutions to a range of real life scenarios.
Our Pupil of the Day has been refreshed for the Spring, with a focus on personal qualities and self compliments. We had lots of compliments for our Pupil of the Day today and she is very determined! 🌟🤩👏🏻
It was lovely to see the excited enthusiastic faces raring to go today. Hard to believe we are in our last term of Primary 1. We had a busy day starting our new home reader ( which I have added on the Oxford Owl site) Flip frog and the bug. Our new sound is a-e and I have sent home a sheet for the children to practise their Fred Talk and speedy reading. As the weather was so lovely today we took our spelling outside amazing to see them working so hard and having fun. We shall be looking at money this term so now is the time to empty the piggy banks and start sorting the coins.
A busy day to welcome our Primary 6/7s back into school today. After a holiday check in and catch up with each other, we were straight to work with spelling and continuing developing reading skills with our novel ‘Wonder’. We have also started learning about the Scottish Parliament and linking our learning to the upcoming elections. We are looking forward to finding out the roles within the Parliament and impact this has on our lives.
