The theme of Maths Week Scotland this year is ‘Maths Tales.’ The Mad Hatter set us a challenge to work with our partners to plan, design and create a hat using specific resources. We enjoyed solving problems, working together and being creative to design our wonderful hats!
We are so excited to share all of the fabulous science projects everyone is bringing in for the Science Fair.
Parents are welcome to come along between 2:30 and 3:30.
Another wonderful day at the forest for P2. This week we worked on different knots as part of our Make Your mark achievements.
We were working on larksfoot, over hand and half stitch. Pupils worked in pairs to practise the knots.
Being able to tie a knot is a life long skill and everyone displayed resilience as they worked towards tying heir knots. Well done everyone!
We had a great time building and exploring materials with the loose parts. We worked with friends, sharing materials, talking and planning our builds and even compromising.
On Friday we went to the Glasgow Science Centre. We had a great day.

Primary Two have been loving our current topic, Our Place in Space. We had a free flow afternoon, where pupils worked across the classroom. There were may activities covered
Painting the solar system, Making aliens, Building rockets, Using the chromebooks, Writing and drawing space stories.
Our afternoon ended with story time with Miss McHaffie.
We had the treat of having the digital leaders come to share their knowledge and expertise. As a team we made short stop motion videos.
It was great to see older pupils displaying patience and responsibility whilst leading the learning of Primary 2.
This week we are learning about why we have day time and night time when the Earth rotates away from the sun.
This week we have been using the engineering process of ASK, IMAGINE, CREATE AND IMPROVE. Ask your child to tell you all about your engineering skills.
