Kirkhill Primary (P3b.1 & P3b.2)

Today Primary 3b.2 baked some yummy shortbread biscuits. We have been learning about weight and different types of scales so this was the perfect way to put our learning into practise! There was a little ‘technical hitch’ in the kitchen so some children didn’t get the chance to decorate their biscuits today. I will make sure this gets done tomorrow 🙂

 

 

 

This Thursday afternoon, Primary 3b will have their Christmas party. If you wish, you may provide your child with a snack and a drink to enjoy at the party.

Thank you!

 

Next week we will be making shortbread biscuits in school. We will be using butter, flour and sugar. If there are any dietary/allergy concerns please let us know 🙂

Please read below for information about our class technology challenge and discuss with your child what they may need to make the gingerbread house. The children will work in groups therefore please limit the amount of recycled junk which they bring in to school.

Through discovery, natural curiosity and imagination, I explore ways to construct models or solve problems. TCH 0-14a

Primary 3 Technology Challenge

Design Brief:

Santa’s elves need help to design a Gingerbread house from recycled Junk material.

Design Criteria:

The Gingerbread house must have windows, door roof and chimney.

The Gingerbread House should be decorated

e.g. candy canes, gingerbread people and/or sweets.

 Please note that we would like empty sweet/chocolate wrappers for this activity.

 

Christmas Jumper Day

The children may wear a Christmas Jumper to school on Friday.

This is a gentle reminder to return homework jotters to school as we only had a few returned today.

Thank you for your continued support!

 

We we are getting into the Christmas spirit in Primary 3b!

 

 

Primary 3b.2 have been taking part in a very exciting activity. We have been learning all about budgeting and have been pricing up a holiday to Lapland! The children worked together in pairs and had some very interesting conversations about which flights, hotels and activities to choose. There were more than a few sad faces this afternoon when we had to break it to the children that we weren’t actually going to be visiting Santa in the North Pole 🙂
