Solo Talks

We did our solo talks. And we learned to speak clearly to people and practice some of our eye contact. We have done so many people like Gordon Ramsay and Lewis Capaldi it was super interesting to listen  to the solo talks and super fun when they sometimes needed some volunteers. They can put it on a bit of paper, or just read it from the White boards. We did it about Italian people or Scottish people. Some people did it about people who write books or who or famous chefs or singers! It was really really fun and we learned lots about being confident, good eye contact, using our notes to help and positive body language.

Starting September

In our classroom we have a targets board where we record our work. If you finish your literacy you put a blue token. When you finish your maths you put a yellow token. A red token is Italy or handwriting. A green is Italy.

 

 

As a class we decided to work on Italy for mearns masters. Then we chose what skills we wanted to work on.

 

 

We also created a class charter.

 

 

As a class we used post-it notes to make a SHANARRI wheel and some of us created starburst art.

 

 

In our first cooking lesson we made a starter bruschetta. Skills we used were: chopping and decorating. We also baked, measured and dipping.

 

 

Then we drew a famous Italian landmarks and wrote facts about it.

 

 

We made tomato pasta in our little groups and some of us took it out for break. Some of the skills that we used were: Chopping, Seasoning, Boiling, and heating. Other skills include, sautéing for a little spice.

 

 

One afternoon we made our landmarks that we drew out of clay.

 

 

The next thing that we cooked in the kitchen was cheesy pasta which was delicious. The skills we used were: grating, heating, boiling and seasoning. We also used some independence to add the pepper

 

This week we made cannoli cones. The cannoli cone skills were: melting, measuring, decorating and assembling.

 

We have also painted our clay models.

 

As you can see 6.23 have been getting up to lots of fun things this September.

Freaky Friday sports fun

What a brilliant morning we enjoyed working our way round all the hallowe’en themed activities on our brand new 3G pitch. We were honoured to be one of the first classes to use it and it was fabulous to watch the opening ceremony with Mrs Shaw, Director of Education, cutting the ribbon to officially open our pitch.

We are looking forward to all the amazing games and fun we will have on the pitch for years to come.

Forestry

Primary three have all been learning about forestry and the importance of forests across the world. Trees are essential for life, not only human life but plant and animal life too. We decided to go outside and explore the school grounds then make some forest words using sticks and leaves. We had great fun and thought carefully about our spelling rules at the same time. Perfect outdoor learning!

P3.9’s Blog

Welcome to P3.9’s Blog.

 

It has been a very busy, fun-filled, learning-packed start to our year, beginning with our P3 Show linked to all of the numeracy-based learning we are engaging in.  3.9 worked extremely hard to learn and deliver their lines, songs and dances. Every member of our class gave their best to our performance, which was a great success.

 

We have also been working hard on our Anti-Litter topic.   The children have produced marvellous posters and placards which we took outside at playtime to encourage all the children in the playground to pick up their litter.  We have been out using the litter-pickers to collect any litter that has not been picked up.  3.9 have been very enthusiastic and have managed to keep our playground much cleaner than it has been in the past.  Well done 3.9!

 

The Big Breakfast was a great success and the children really enjoyed having breakfast together as a class.

 

During Defib week 3.9 learned lots about how to take care of a person who has become ill.  All the children really enjoyed their homework task to do a minute’s intense exercise each night, and to feel their hearts pumping the blood through their bodies.  Hopefully we will raise enough money to purchase our own Defibrillator.

Unfortunately we are still waiting for a few photo consent forms and so can’t publish photos of all the activities that have been going on.  Hopefully we will have them all in soon and some photos will accompany our blog.
