Flower Primary School is Open!

 

The enrolment applications have been collected and reviewed. We read every child’s application to our school and discussed whether it was right to turn any of the pupils away or not. We decided everyone should have an equal chance to come to Flower Primary School! Welcome everyone!

Flower Primary School is over flowing with pupils!
The pupils who applied were created by many different classes in the school!

Active Spelling

Here we are on a Spelling Hunt outside to look for words for our phoneme charts. We have been looking at the ‘ae’ sound made by ‘ay’, ‘ea’, ‘ey’, ‘ai’ and ‘a-e’ as well as the ‘oo’ sound made by ‘oo’, ‘ew’, ‘u’, ‘ue’ and ‘u-e’.

Nicola has found some interesting words like 'school' and 'scooter'Looking all around for words that no one else might get!Looking all around for words that no one else might get!

Our School

The next step in our topic was to think about how school buildings look. We did a walk around our own school and sketched the building from different angles. Here are some pictures of us investigating and sketching our school and some of our finished sketches!

We used our ICT time to research other school buildings in Falkirk Council and gathered pictures of buildings we liked. We used this information to plan our own ideal school buildings in our co-operative groups.

We each designed and created our own buildings against the clock! Here are our schools and the winning school which is now the focus of our storyline!
