October blogging!

We have been so very busy as usual! We have been making sentences in French. In ICT, we have made fun cartoon stories on the computer and drawn our own cartoons too! In Music, Mrs Carey is teaching us to identify the new rhythm “ta-a” and we have learnt about a rest. We can also sing and show the hand sign for the new note “la”.

In Science we have really loved the fascinating experiments about the human body and have even taken out organs and then fitted them back in – to plastic models of human torsos!!

We finished creating our own spectacular landscapes in Art and had an excellent visit to Giffnock Library’s Heritage Centre where we investigated old maps and photographs of the farmyards of Giffnock’s past!

Out of school, our achievements have been piling up! Josh had an incredible adventure in the holidays – he saved a seal pup! It was stuck on land and he managed to direct it back to the sea. Eleena has been practising the piano and can do 100 press ups without stopping! Callum has learnt a song on the piano and Logan L can play the drums to a beat. Sam can go down steps on his bike, Emma can ride on the road with her mum and Musa has learnt how to take his bicycle safely across the road.

Amna has achieved a green tag at Taekwando. Ruadhan, Heather, Ailey, Emma, Rhys, Yousef, Ruaridh, Marcus, Daniel and Sam have passed new levels at swimming! Millie has now started at Razmataz and Emma is practising for a gymnastics competition. Lucy, Ella, Amelia and Ailey have started a new riding club. Sophie has been active and can do a front flip on the trampoline.

Literacy and Numeracy

Our learning in these areas will draw upon the contexts listed above but will differ according to the needs of each class / group. Your support with consolidation of core learning through homework activities will be very beneficial to our children.

Article 13

You have the right to find out things and say what you think, through making art, speaking and writing unless it breaks the rights of others.
