Maths

We are learning all about time in school just now.  The children can already successfully say and order the days of the week and identify specific tasks that they do on different days of the week.  Yesterday the children were learning about the importance of telling the time and where they would see time in the world around them.  They worked together in groups to create collages of objects that would show time in both analogue and digital format.

Fairyland

In Term 3 our topic is Fairyland. The children will be helping the friendly dragon to rebuild Fairyland by completing some tasks. Keep an eye out on our blog to follow our journey rebuilding Fairyland.

It has been such a BUSY first week helping the dragon 🐉.  The boys and girls helped to find the Gingerbread man before the old man, old woman or the sly fox found him.

 

The children received a letter form the dragon! It was very exciting…

Table lamp designs by Primary 3

Primary 3 have been learning about electricity in science/STEM. They have been learning to connect up a circuit using the correct components and then used these skills to design a table lamp that lights up! Throughout this task the children developed problem solving and teamwork skills in order to assemble a lamp that works. Have a look at Primary 3 in action designing, creating and making their own lamps.

Santa Claus Came to Cleeves

On Monday ALL the boys and girls in Cleeves had their Christmas parties but it was an extra special day for the children in P1 – P3 – SANTA came to visit.

We sprinkled some reindeer food and sang jingle bells really loudly so he knew where we were.  He even brought presents with him as we are all on his ‘Good List’
