Welcome to our Class Blog. Our teachers are Mrs Hastie, Mrs Miller & Mrs Galt :)
Today we read the book The Dragon Machine, we look at the figurative language used.
In pairs, we went on a dragon hunt! We had to find the dragons hiding in the school and describe where they are ( using propositions) and describing what they looked like (using adjectives, alliteration, similes and metaphors ).
We will be using our notes to write short descriptions in grammar tomorrow.
Good dragon finding class!
In our reading trios we were investigating the cause and effect of events in Charlottes’s web.
We love choosing active spelling strategies to help us learn our spelling words.
Take a look!

We have had lots of fun creating our zig zag books to encourage primary 1 classes to read for pleasure. We have also been creating personalised bookmarks for primary 1 as part of our Enterprise topic to promote reading for pleasure.  
 
One of our talented pupils Lauren received a Blue Peter badge for all her hard work. She wrote a story called “Maths Man and Maths Girl”. She also raised £200 for British Heart Foundation by completing a 5K cycle.
Well done Lauren! We are so proud of you!!!!!!
Max: We have been thinking of some magic recipes.

Jaya: “The bright shiny sun”.
Kayla: “The yummy red apple”.

Primary 3b have been using their senses to create a setting for an imaginative story. We have been so intrigued discussing what kind of world could be behind this door.
Today, we had a long journey to the Rainforest! we wrote postcards to tell all of our friends and family about our adventures out there. Most of us found the climate too hot.
On our travels we picked up some smashing star writers along the way….well done! 
Primary 3b were celebrating World Book Day. They loved listening, discussing and acting out an alternative ending to Little Red Riding Hood.
