Lights! Camel! Action! Primary 1a and 1c were outstanding as they performed the annual nativity. They sang, danced and acted their way through rehearsals and shows and “wowed” their audience who clapped, cheered and laughed. As always, we were very proud teachers.

We have almost finished learning about report writing and have been getting on so well. Next week we need to put all our knowledge together to create a report on Robert Burns for our assembly.
We have had the Achieve More coaches again for PE and still absolutely love them. Scottish Country Dancing in the playground is also good fun but a bit chilly.
We all passed our maths assessment and are getting ready for the holidays.
This week p6a enjoyed a trip to the Kings Theatre to see Peter Pan! The children thoroughly enjoyed themselves and represented the school proudly. What a great start to the week and a lovely treat for everyone.
In class we have been busy working on characterisation in writing! We used the description bubbles to help us when creating our own characters. We then expanded our notes, adding more detail, to create a description of our characters.
This week P7a have been getting into the festive spirit, by completing some Christmas STEM challenges.
In numeracy we’ve consolidated our understanding of volume, by using V =L x W x H, and using algebra to solve problems involving unknown measurements.
We’ve collaborated well in our reciprocal reading groups, and our developing our inference, summary and visualisation skills.

P4a have had a busy week this week. We have been revising multiplication strategies and practising our times tables. We have wrote detailed setting descriptions and have been learning how to uplevel our writing. We have now learnt 4 different Scottish country dances in PE! We can’t wait to do them at our Christmas party. We absolutely loved the Rookie Rockstars Christmas reunion on Thursday too!

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.
🔤Literacy – this week in writing we continue to work on characterisation, comparing characters by their personalities, actions and how they communicate. We focussed on the characters of Miss Honey and Miss Trunchbull from the novel Matilda.
🧊Maths – we have continued to explore shape during our maths lessons. This week we looked at 3D shapes and thought about how they are formed and what real life objects they relate to.
🎵For music we have enjoyed developing our skills on the glockenspiel. This week we were practising the song ‘Jingle Bells’. It was quite tricky to keep in time but everyone had a lot of fun.
