What a fun week celebrating Robert Burns!
We have enjoyed all areas of the curriculum this week and can’t wait to show you what we have been doing!
This week in maths we looked at symmetry in patterns and shapes. We had loads of fun playing these Topmarks games:

Abdulhadi – They were making symmetrical patterns.
Issa – When you fold the pattern it should match on either side.
Lulu – We used patterns and colours in symmetry.
In maths we also continued to look at Place Value.
Here is Ajwa describing place value to the class. Miss Graham thought her explanation was fantastic.
RV – She was hiding the zero to show it’s a ‘ten’.
Ajwa – I was being the teacher.
Arham – We were doing Place Value.
Ajwa – We were finding the numbers on 100 boards.
Zayn showed just how amazing he is by writing a sentence independently. What a superstar!
Zayn – I used my alphabet to spell my words and write a sentence.
On Wednesday, the BBC came to visit and we got to play some games from the show, Swashbuckle.
Arham – We were trying to get the beanbags into the correct box.
Deen – It was for the show, Swashbuckle.
Arham – We played games.
Talha – We played games that we had to listen.
All this week we have been getting outside and taking part in the daily mile with Primary 2/3. We walk or run round the MUGA as many times as possible before play time.
RV – We are exercising everyday.
As today is Robert Burns day, we celebrated Robert Burns in school by hosting a Burns Assembly. We truly were the stars of the show, introducing each class and singing a Scottish song.
We enjoyed learning our lines and practicing our song each day.
If you would like to see our performance of ‘If it Wisney Fur Yer Wellies’, it should be available via this link:
Abdullah Q – We did our part in the show and sang a song.
Rida – We were singing.
RV – We had lines to learn.
Innayah – We used the mic when speaking.
Abdulhadi – We introduced each class.
RV – Mum and Dads came to see us, it was very exciting.

Hope you are having a fantastic weekend.
