Alongside the whole class being assigned books weekly on Giglets, some children will be given a physical copy of a book to read at home.

Please ensure these are looked after and returned each Monday.

Please Note: No new books will be issued without the return of the previous book. 

Numeracy

We have been learning about fractions and comparing sizes of fractions through games and different activities.

Reading Strategies 

We have learnt to summarise this week, or as some in the class like to call it “getting to the point!”

Writing

Our writing programme is continuing, we took the chance to look back to when we first started our writing journey to see how much progress we have made and it is fantastic to see the difference. Some jotters were chosen to take and share with other schools and everyone who saw them was very impressed.

Topic

As Scots week is coming up we have been learning about Scotland, the children were especially interested in learning about all the different famous people who are from Scotland.

In addition to the homework each week, all children are assigned books on Giglets.

All children have had log-ins sent home with them today (so please check bags).

Books will be updated on a weekly basis on a Monday.

We have had a great first week back and although we have all been tired, we have made it to the end!

We have been practising our Scots poem this week and there is fantastic progress already!

Numeracy

We have been revising the 4 mathematical operations and it is good to see how many children could successfully remember how to do them all.

Writing

We are continuing with our writing programme and our focus is currently on punctuation.

Art

We have been looking at the art technique pointillism and have created our own 4 season trees (You might notice not all of the paint ended up on the paper…)

2026 Resolutions

We were looking at different new years resolutions (in both English and French) and were thinking about what we want to achieve this year. We have them displayed in class so we can remind ourselves of our goals.

Scots Language week is 19th January, in celebration 3 pupils from each class will be chosen to perform at a special assembly..

Primary 4’s Scots poem this year is A Dug, A Dug by Bill Keys

Please practise at home and we will be doing lots of different work around the poem and Scots language in general in class 🙂

A fun filled final day of term 🙂

Have a lovely Christmas and I will see you all in the new year!

We spent some time today making Christmas cards as a class, they all look lovely 🙂

One day left!!

After weeks of collecting cardboard and plastic, we finally had enough to make some viking longships.

The children worked together to make their designs come to life and its safe to say the outcomes were brilliant!

Well done everyone!
