P4b

I liked creating an imaginative comic strip because we got to illustrate it so drew more than we wrote. Bella

Athletics was fun! I like running and jumping. Charlie

We started to learn hockey skills. I was better at that than football. Alice

I haven’t done hockey before but it was lots of fun – better than football. Sara

I liked building castles made of shapes in the playroom. Finn

We learned lots about Glasgow – The tree that never grew, the bird that never flew, the fish that never swam and the bell that never rang. Jessica

We made Glasgow landmarks using clay. I made the Armadillo. Lily

 

P1b weekly update

This week p1b have enjoyed learning about people in the past. We explored how technology has changed over the decades through our role play Museum.
We learned about the importance of bugs and the positive impact they have in their natural habitats. We also enjoyed learning about fractions and can confidently identify  halves.

We are a Silver – Rights Aware School!

The Rights Respecting Schools committee are delighted to announce that following our assessment on Thursday 8th May 2025, we have been awarded the

UNICEF SILVER AWARD!

This week in P7b…

This week we celebrated 850 years since Glasgow was officially given Burgh status. We learned what this means and about some of Glasgow’s history. We explored the Coat of Arms and the stories connected to it and created some of our own that represent us. In Maths we solved a series of problems relating to planning a 850 celebration day parade. We finished the day off making ‘jeely pieces’ and talking about some of our own favourite memories and experiences in Glasgow.

P4a Weekly Update

We’ve had another fantastic week in P4a. In maths, we explored probability and reinforced our times tables through active learning stations. In literacy, we learned all about the features of non-fiction books. We practised our note-taking skills to help us gather key facts and organise information. Then, we used our notes to plan and create our very own non-fiction books. We worked incredibly hard and felt so proud of our finished pieces! We’re hoping to add them to our school library so others can enjoy reading them too. We also had our final football session this week and took part in a friendly tournament. It was a great chance to show off our new skills and demonstrate brilliant teamwork and sportsmanship.

Have a lovely long weekend,
Miss Maclennan and P4a

P2a

This week P2a were learning about fractions, the class had a lot of fun using the cubes to figure out half’s and quarters and even challenged themselves further with 3 quarters and thirds.

We began learning about procedural writing by practising sequencing a set of instructions, highlighting why it’s important instructions are clear and in the correct order.

The class also had a fun with their P6 paired reading buddies as we took it outside this week, thanks to their amazing reading the two classes got a chance to have a play together.

In the playroom we are being history detectives learning about people, things and life in the past. So far we have learned about Victorian schools and the history of the telephone. Some of the class were building their own Victorian schools and tables and chairs.

Oceans in P6B

This week P6B looked at the layers of the ocean and all the wonderful animals that live there! We labelled a diagram that showed the 5 different layers of the ocean, and now we are working on a class display!

We used our iPads to research marine life and drew pictures of them that will be displayed on our topic wall. They will be placed within the ocean zone that they live in. We have worked incredibly hard on this and the drawings are beautiful!

See us next week for the finished result!

P5a’s week

Another busy week in p5a! We have been learning strategies for long multiplication in Maths. Writing fabulous explanation texts in Writing, and creating movie trailers for our reading books. We have been coding in ICT and learning all about sustainability and helping our environment in Topic. We have  been exploring this further in our Creative Enquiry stations. We have started by planting lots of flowers outside to brighten up our area and attract wildlife.
have a lovely long weekend!

Bug hunt

P2b went on a bug hunt and using an app identified the bugs and insects they found. After we used the pictures we had taken as inspiration for our art lesson. Well done boys and girls.

Scratch coding

P6a have demonstrated brilliant coding skills this week.  We used the app Scratch to help us create coding animations.  If we were new to coding our friends helped us by giving little tips and showing us how to solve any problems.  Superb cooperation, creativity and coding.
