This week in p7b
We loved having the coaches from Achieve More this week for PE. Everyone got so invested in jump the river. Miss Stevenson has never seen us try so hard to do something.
Our research into the life of Robert Burns is getting underway ahead of our assembly next term.
Fundraising for the Beatson
Dear Families,
Some of you may know that last year we started fundraising for the Beatson Cancer Charity. Cancer impacts so many of us in different ways. The Beatson offer outstanding care and support to those affected by cancer. At our Christmas Fayre last week we raised £170 for the charity. For the second year running Wallacewell Primary staff and our Parent Council will also be taking part in the Santa Dash in Glasgow this coming weekend to raise money for the Beatson. Please help us to raise our target by clicking on the link below to donate –
Every little counts and everything is very much appreciated. Thank you in advance. 🧑🎄🎅🏻.

We had a great week with spelling with the best spelling test results so far.
We are doing very well at organising our own reading circles and will keep working on this in the weeks to come.
We have been talking about making responsible choices in PATHS and we can see this reflected in our decisions in class.

This Week in P7b
This week in PE we started Scottish Country dancing with p7a. We got off to a flying start, learning the Gay Gordons in the playground. We got very competitive showing Miss Stevenson the badminton skills we have been practising at Springburn Leisure Centre, with a very high energy game of around the world.
We have been doing some more film literacy this week, looking at camera angles and showed great understanding of how these can impact the viewer.
We have looked at the structure needed in report writing and will continue to do more work on this next week.
In Maths we have been working on multiplication and have been making great progress with this. We even managed to do some problem solving activities.
