Thank you to everyone who came along to our Christmas Fayre. The school was full to capacity with people and their was a real buzz.
We still have some of reindeer food for sale. At a £1 a jar, it is a bargain! ( And those reindeer need to be fed!)
At gym today, we did different activities. Some were quite tricky and we had to concentrate. For some, we had to work as a team. It was a lot of fun. We did our warm up first , then a cool down at the end.
We have so much to do in P1.3 . We learn by working with our teachers and by playing at the different activities in our class. We are very good at sharing and taking turns. We know our routines. Everything runs smoothly.
We all set off on the bus to see “Paddington 2” in Kilmarnock. We were so excited. We arrived, got our seats and munched our snacks. Then……. we had to move cinema screen as the film wouldn’t work. So, we all packed up and headed to the next screen and watched “ The Grinch” . It was very good.
Adrienne visited us today. She is a minister at Mearns Baptist Church. She is very kind. She told us all about looking after babies and how we can be thankful for babies and how they are welcomed into church at their Christening.
We were learning all about symmetry. We had to make symmetrical pictures using our loose parts and we went for a walk around the school to see what was symmetrical. It was quite tricky, but we soon became experts.
We visited the school library today. We were having a little look at the books and we read stories to each other. When we return to the library, we will be able to take books out, but we have to remember to bring them back!
We learn maths in all different ways. We can use our loose parts to add and we use real money when we learn about money. Here we are adding 1and sorting out money.
We have started to learn Scottish Country Dancing. We were a bit uncertain at first, but soon got the hang of it. A lot of counting to 8 was heard and a lot of giggles. We had to work as a team and go round for 8in a circle and go back again. Then we had to go up to our partners and clap their hands . We’ll do more next week and add in the music.
We has a lot of fun with our hallowe’en science. We made lava lamps; felt the gloop, slime and freely pumpkins; we touched the ice hands and felt them as they melted and we watched the pumpkin throw up when Mrs Arbuckle put the vinegar onto the special powder; we used static electricity to lift the tissue ghosts and Miss Barrie from Eastwood High brought in her Van der Graaf Generator. It made lightning and cracked. It also made Miss Barrie’s hair stand up.
Lots of activities ! Lots of fun!
