One Kind Word – Anti Bullying Week 2021

This week, the school and P7 are taking part in Anti Bullying Week and today we made posters on things our classmates think about us and a Wonder portrait of our selfs. They are amazing and look fabulous. We loved writing kind comments about our classmates and felt good about it. The Wonder Poster ties into our reading book, they represent that everyone is important and that everyone is worth the same no matter how they look.

P5 Halloween Fun

Today we were creative with this weeks spelling words since it was our Halloween Fun Day.

We also had fun playing the Roll A Pumpkin Game and doing a hidden Halloween surprise drawing. 

We finished our day with a little  dance to the Monster Mash and Thriller. I am trying hard but my little video clip won’t share at the moment. Sorry.

Lots of happy faces. Happy Halloween everyone!

 

P1 Fairyland

P1 had an amazing time this afternoon when taking part in a science experiment, making butter. The children guessed how they could make the butter, some predictions were:

  • using milk and flour then cook
  • salt in a tub and shake it
  • putting cheese in the oven for 5 minutes

In two groups, pupils were given tubs with double cream which they had to shake as much as they could. This allowed the fat molecules to clump together and create butter and buttermilk. We put the butter in the fridge for 20 minutes and when it was ready, enjoyed it spread on a pancake.

Dyslexia Awareness Week

In Primary 2 we have been learning about dyslexia as it is Dyslexia Awareness Week. The children have been watching videos and looking at different examples of how others with dyslexia read, spell and write.

We took part in an activity to allow the children to understand what it is like to write and copy information. To do this we copied information from the board using non dominant hand.

The children found this tricky and noticed that it was very hard and wasn’t as neat as their other hand either. We will be continuing to learn about dyslexia throughout the week through different activities.
