This week is World of Work Week. We will have lots of visitors coming into school this week to speak to our pupils about work. Please ask your child what they have learned from our guest speakers.
This is a consolidation week for Active Literacy so please revise the last 2 phonemes “oe” and “ou”.
Please also continue to help your child with time, especially o’clock, half past, quarter to and quarter past and help them match analogue to digital times. Your help with this is much appreciated.

DECORATE A POTATO FOR WORLD BOOK DAY
The Inclusive Friendly Schools Committee are asking parents/carers to help their child/children decorate a potato for World Book Day.
Create your favourite book character from the same simple starting point – a lumpy potato. We’d love to see your final potato characters – why not share them with us?
Send a picture of your character to susan.cross1@eastayrshire.org.uk on or before the 7th March or send it into school. Have fun!
World Book Day will be taking place on Thursday 7 March 2024.
World Book Day provides a fantastic opportunity to focus on reading for pleasure and embed a lifetime habit of reading. We will be completing lots of activities that will hopefully encourage a love of reading throughout the whole year. This week our main focus will be Paddington.
For maths this week, here is a times table grid to choose from. Do as many activities as you can:

Please return all completed designs by Wednesday 14th February.

Thank you so much for helping the boys and girls in P3 to learn their poem, A Dug, A Dug. I am so impressed with their efforts so far. Keep up the good work at home, please, and we will continue to recite it in class too.
We have a slight change to our class timetable this term. PE days have changed to a Monday and a Tuesday, so please ensure children bring their full kit and have no jewellery on those days please.

Happy New Year to you all. I hope you had a lovely Christmas and enjoyed some fun times with family and friends.
We will begin our first week back with our Scots Language block.
P3 have the Scottish Poem, A Dug, A Dug by Bill Keys to learn with you at home for homework. We will discuss the language and practise reciting it in class, but your support with learning the words will be much appreciated. Please encourage your child to memorise the words as some children will be put forward to recite it as part of our annual Burns’ Competition.
A DUG, A DUG by Billy Keys
Hey, daddy, wid yi get us a dug?
A big broon alsatian? Ur a wee white pug,
Ur a skinny wee terrier ur a big fat collie.
Aw, daddy. Get us a dug. Will yi?
Whit! An’ whose dug’ll it be when it durties the flerr?
an’ wets the carpet, and messes the sterr?
It’s me ur yer mammy’ll be tane fur a mug.
Away oot an play. Yur no gettin a dug.
But, daddy! Thur gien them away
doon therr at the RSPCA.
Yu’ll get wan fur nothing so ye will.
Aw, daddy. Get us a dug. Will ye?
Dji hear im? Oan aboot dugs again?
Ah think that yin’s goat dugs’n the brain.
Ah know whit yu’ll get; a skite oan the lug
if ah hear any merr aboot this bloomin dug.
Aw, daddy, it widny be dear tae keep
an ah’d make it a basket fur it tae sleep
an ah’d take it fur runs away ower the hull.
Aw, daddy. Get us a dug. Will ye?
Ah doan’t think thur’s emdy like you.
Ye could wheedle the twist oot a flaming coarkscrew.
Noo get doon aff my neck. Gies nana a yur hugs.
Awright. THAT’S ANUFF. Ah’ll get ye a dug.
Aw, daddy! A dug! A dug!
Remember to adjust your voice to show whether it is the adult or child speaking, add in any gestures you think are appropriate and remember the poem is telling the story of a child trying to PERSUADE their adult to get them a dog, so show this with your tone of voice. Have fun learning it together!
