Week beginning 11/11/19

This began with P3 learning about the importance of Remembrance Day.  We watched a short video about why the significance of the poppy and designed our own.

As a class we observed the 2 minutes silence at the 11th hour of the 11th day of the 11th month.

In maths this week we were learning about identifying 2D shapes and their properties.  Undoubtedly the highlight of the week was our Architectural Walking Tour of Pollokshields.  In groups we used our brand new class-set of 6 iPads to photograph buildings of interest and then identify 2D shapes on the buildings.




It was a stunning day which really helped to show off just how beautiful Pollokshields really is.

After a lot of walking and photography we decided we all deserved a bit of a play in Maxwell Park.  Great fun was had by all!


On Friday we celebrated St Albert’s Day 2019. Amongst other fun activities we wrote an acrostic poem about what St Albert’s means to us.  It’s at times like this we all realise what a special place our school truly is.


Next week is Book Week Scotland, to help promote the importance of reading please take some time each day to read with your child.  It’s amazing what you can learn from each other just by spending a few minutes reading together.
