Miss Galloway was very impressed by P3/4’s ball control and techniques they know about Tennis, we then took sometime to research about the sport.

Today in P3/4 we have had a few incidents linked to the games and swapping of Pokemon cards during break times.

Due to these incidents the school has decided it would be best if children keep their Pokeman cards at home and do not bring them into school.

Thank you

Today P3/4 decided to take our learning outside into the sunshine to talk about our health and wellbeing.

During our PaThs discussion we focused on the term ‘teasing’ and what if felt like to be teased by others. We read a story about a girl who was being teased by another girl in her class. Throughout this story we identified the actions and reactions from both girls and talked about how each girl would feel using our comfortable and uncomfortable feelings chart.

To finish we listened to each other’s experiences of these feelings and discussed strategies of how we can overcome difficult situations in future.

P3/4 have been increasing their knowledge of different types of angles throughout this week.

We discussed the importance of angles of angles during everyday activities and completed a challenge to find as many different types of angles within a variety of objects outside in the playground.

Some objects containing angles included:

• signs
• tables
• cones
• the stage
• fence

Primary 3/4 have been learning all about random acts of kindness during their PAThS lesson today. They have been asked to complete a random act of kindness at home and to share this in class.

P3/4 had an eggcellent day learning all about Easter. They listened to the Easter story and then used their problem solving skills to complete the story sequence.

They also decorated their eggs and then finished the day off by completing a maths Easter egg hunt. They had to use their problem solving skills to find the answers and find the secret code.

This week P3/4 have been advancing their skills in hockey and learning to safely control the hockey stick and ball in partners and small groups.

This is a little reminder that voting and selection for the representatives of each primary stage will take place this Wednesday (23.3.22).

P3 pupils just have to let their teacher know if they would like to be put forward as a candidate.

P4 pupils must let their teacher know and prepare a short speech which they will present in  front  of their class (P3/4). Pupils will have a short time to work on their speeches tomorrow (Tuesday) in class but I would recommend pupils working on them at home tonight and tomorrow night. Speeches can be as long or as short as pupils like but I recommend around 1-2 mins speaking time.
