Week beginning 29th April 2019

Primary 2 homework 

This week pupils will be issued a new homework overview for April – June, look out for this in the homework folders.

Numeracy homework will be mental maths flashcards, which pupils can practise at home. Each week pupils will swap flashcards so they can practise a different numeracy skill. Therefore it is super important that pupils look after these and bring them back each Friday.

Education City and Sumdog will still be accessible using the passwords in the homework jotters.

Whole School Homework 

No whole school homework this week.

P7 Confirmation 

On Wednesday evening, P7 make their Sacrament of Confirmation. Please keep these pupils in your prayers during this time.

Poland National Heritage Day

We took part in a Kahool quiz to test our knowledge on Poland. We worked in teams to answer the questions created by the  Modern Foreign Language Committee.

Child Led Learning 

It’s amazing what we can imagine with one piece of paper.

Research 

Pupils accessed Junior Britannica Encyclopedia on the chromebooks (available through the Foundry – with a valid library card).  Pupils started off looking at Scotland and then chose their own area to explore. We had lots of different interests including California, Foxes, Black Holes and Planes.
