Working hard in P5b


Primary 5B have been learning to use different strategies to add increasingly larger numbers. They worked with a partner and individually completed some jotter work to learn.

P5b used many skills to create something that could make a journey. On Thursday it was terrific to enjoy a PE lesson outdoors.

Primary 1a’s busy life

Primary 1a have had a successful and busy start to primary 1. Not only have they been learning new sounds each week but they have been recognising numbers to 10 through fun counting activities and subtitizing. They have also extended their learning to the playroom where they are developing skills in collaboration, turn taking and sharing through our recent topic about dinosaurs.

Primary 1a Class Charter

Primary 1a worked together to discuss what was important to them to feel safe, happy and to learn in school and created their own class charter around these ideas. These skills and the rights that they have recognised will help them in the classroom and the wider school community.

Play in P1c

The children have had a wonderful week engaging in their learning during their time in the playroom. This week all play provisions supported development with challenges in STEM. The children worked so well together and challenged themselves too.  

Numeracy

This week in primary 1b we are learning to identify and write numbers from 0-10. We have enjoyed working on subitizing during each lesson to increase our confidence in numeracy.

Class charter

Together in primary 1b we have created our very own Class Charter. We have recognised the importance of our rights and enjoyed working collaboratively to decide which ones are important for our class.
We used our rights to create our Lego themed class charter which we will all follow to keep our class a happy and safe place to learn.

STEM

We have been enjoying our time in the creative enquiry room!

Our focus over the next few weeks is ‘Journeys’.

Some of the activities we have been engaged with are:-

  • Creating a boat with a propeller tat can move in water
  • Creating a vehicle with wheels
  • Design a marble run / rollercoaster
  • Coding a spheros
  • Create / record a video report

P6a have been very engaged in all the activities on offer and have really used their imagination and problem-solving skills to support them in their work!

P3a Active Play

We had a great start to this week enjoying time outdoors taking part in the Active Play program.  This involved working together as a team, lots of running around and importantly having fun.

After all our exercise we continued on with our discursive writing.  Mrs Potter was very impressed with the great planning discussions we had together before we began.

In Maths we began looking at part part whole models which will help us with our understanding of addition and subtraction.

Finally we continued our Fairtrade learning in our Play area where some children decided to create their own Fairtrade shop to sell their products.
