We made a healthy pot of soup using carrots from the St Mark’s vegetable patch. We weighed, counted and timed the ingredients. 
Remember it is Show Racism the red card day tomorrow
Wear extra red please ❤️

P7s leading a PE lesson for P4a – we learned great new skills
Health Week
We have had a fantastic week this week participating in all the activities for Health Week. We kicked off health week with a bit of dance. Thank you so much to Holly for teaching us this amazing routine!
We then made some delicious fruit kebabs. We got to try lots of different fruits like mango, pineapple, apricot and melon.
We also didn’t let the bad weather stop us from enjoying our sports day. Well done to those who placed in the races.
School Trip
We had a blast at Rouken Glen on Monday. Here are some pictures from our adventures that day. We loved feeding the ducks, playing in the park and going on a woodland walk.
Outdoor Learning
Over the past few weeks we have been making the most of the lovely weather by taking our learning outside. We love being outside learning new and exciting things. We went outside to practice telling the time on numeracy. We used natural materials to create a clock face on the ground together working as a team.
We also went outside to practice our numbers to 100. We spoke about odds and evens and created our own number lines.
We also worked with P3b outside to practice our times tables. We used stones, sticks and leaves found in the playground to show each calculation and the answers.

Please can you have a look in the house for any school reading books. Some of the children haven’t handed back in reading books from previous weeks and unfortunately another reading book cannot be given home until the last was returned.

Digital Learning Week
This week we celebrated Digital Learning Week. Throughout the week we got the chance to use lots of different digital technologies in class to enhance our learning.
To kick off our week we visited the hall to see and use all the digital equipment we have in the school. The digital leaders showed us how to use it all.
We then used the chrome books to practise our spelling for this week. We used google docs to type up our words and also created stop motion films that show us spelling our words.
During literacy we started learning about comic books. We looked at the layout of comic books and spoke about why we enjoyed reading them. We then worked together in groups to create our own comic books. We created characters and a storyline and drew this on our storyboard. Using the app ‘Book Creator’ on the IPads we then began to create our own digital comic book. We had so much fun using our imaginations and working together.
We had so much fun using digital technologies this week!!!
