Sibling Home Learning Fun

April 30, 2020 Mrs Nouillan Leave a comment

Good morning and isn’t it lovely to see these two having so much fun with their home learning!
These two adorable siblings have been busy with baking, science, planting, arts and crafts and they are even helping out with dishes! I also spy a Spring Scavenger sheet too!

I say it all the time, but we are really missing being at school and being with the children so it is so lovely for us all to see photographs of them!
I look forward to receiving more photographs to add to our blog.
with warmest regards, Mrs Nouillan

Lots and Lots and Lots of Fun

Good afternoon, I received an email from a mummy of a P1 pupil and she has shared lots and lots of fun learning photos..in his words he said:

I have lost two teeth and had a haircut, which I didn’t like at first. I have been going on walks and bike rides, looking after tadpoles (which have now gone back to the burn). I liked making our own pizzas and smoothies (my favourite is blueberry, banana and raspberry). I have been helping wash the car and planting potatoes and vegetables in our garden. I have played in the paddling pool and we had an egg hunt and bbq at Easter and made decorations. I miss my friends but spoke to P1 classmates on the laptop, which was really good. I have been busy doing school work and getting better at reading.

It has been super to see all the fun he is having!

Please remember to email me any photos and I will add to them to the blog, it is lovely for us all to see the children.

with kindest regards, Mrs Nouillan

Fun Home Learning

Good morning everyone, I hope you are all enjoying the sunny weather and having lots of fun in your garden or just enjoying a community walk.

Today I received photographs from two delightful brothers and they have been having lots of fun together and playing in their garden. They have also been taking their dogs, George and Mildred on walks (if you are a child of the 70s you’ll know!!) although Mildred is taking it easy as she is recovering from an operation so only gentle walks for her!

It is so lovely for us to see the children of Dunlop Primary and ECC and I welcome all your photos for me to add to the blog.

with warmest regards, Mrs Nouillan

Numeracy Help Sheets

We have all heard the phrase, “That is not how my teacher does it!” we have therefore created some numeracy help sheets to show you how we would encourage the children to set out their tasks.

P7 STEAM Week

March 20, 2020 Miss Ainsworth Leave a comment

Last week P7 had a week of STEAM based learning. We were learning to use Excel in maths to create pie charts of a social media survey conducted between p5-7. For science we were learning how to stop the spread of infectious diseases and then had to create a model hand washing device from a range of junk material. They only had a limited number of credits so had to be creative with resources and measure/calculate how much of each item they could use. P7 then had the choice to create a game, video clip, poster or drama sketch to then educate others.
The week ended on a high with a visit from the Science Centre which had a Renewable Energy focus.
