Primary 3 created performance poems all about our school, to celebrate 60 years of St. Mark’s.
. 
Everyone tired hard to create similes.
The boys and girls concentrated on how they were going to perform each line using their voice in different ways. All boys and girls gave a confidence performance, we even had very created positions to perform for example laying down and sitting at a table.
“We had an outdoor spelling test this morning. We even peer assessed each other’s words!” Orla
“We decided to create villages using chalk.” Leah Indie
“We thought about Barrhead in the future.” Isla-Rose, Lilly, Annabelle, Lacy & Emmie
“We heard about indigenous people and listened to a debate about cutting down the rainforest. We then made tribal house.” Reece
The boys and girls were amazing at playing dynamite today during outdoor PE! They were working on team building skills today and listened to each other well and were very competitive! 🧨 They continued to use the skills we have been working on during our fitness lessons such as speed, accuracy and core strength.
This week at Forest School we made our own fire and roasted marshmallow!
We have been working on our talking and listening skills. We played board games all about money today! The boys and girls loved it!
We took shelter from the rain.
We explained how we felt and what we heard during our nature bath.
We played Eagle Eyes.
We discussed how the forest has change since we were last here. We identified trees and flowers.
We recapped what we already have learned about fire and learned about the different types of ways to build a fire.
Then we had a go at building them!
Reece demonstrated he was resilient and managed to climb the tree for the first time today. Well done!
To celebrate Palm Sunday we used drama to recreate Jesus arriving as king in Jerusalem.
Well done to Reece for adopting a snow leopard. What a lovely thing to do! Congratulations!
Q
Primary 3 have learned so much at forest school, this week we were learning about tools. They boys and girls cut wood using a saw, safely. Even in the rain we still had fun under Mrs Carwood’s tent. Everyone is safely taking risks and trying to challenge themselves to climb high in the trees, swing high on the tree swing and working together to discover creatures and plants. We also had a scavenger hunt to find signs of Spring.
We worked with P3b in the playground on a scavenger hunt too, solving maths problem. All pupils were very successful and earned lots of house points.
