SC – We were looking at plastic eggs.
NN – We were exploring the little museum and we saw silly faces and we had to see how many we could draw.

Room 3
We had a fantastic time on our recent school trip to Kelvingrove Art Gallery and Museum!
During our tour of the museum, the children explored different areas of the museum and had the opportunity to look and learn about a variety of animals. They were excited to spot familiar animals and discover new and unusual ones too! We talked about where the animals come from and what makes them special. The children asked thoughtful questions and showed great curiosity as they explored.
One of the highlights of our visit was a fantastic workshop all about expressions and emotions. The children learned how we can tell how someone is feeling by looking at their facial expressions. They explored different emotions such as happiness, sadness, surprise and anger and discussed times when they might feel these emotions.
As part of the workshop, the children created their own expressive faces using clay. They carefully shaped eyes, mouths and eyebrows to show different feelings. We were so impressed with their creativity and the thoughtful way they represented emotions through their designs!
In school, we continued our creative learning by making beautiful Valentine’s Day cards. The children worked hard on their designs, showing care and creativity. It was lovely to see them taking pride in their work.
In maths, we have been working hard on subtraction within 5. The children have been using concrete materials, number lines and cubes to help them take away and find the answers.
In literacy, we have been consolidating the different sounds we have learnt during the past 2 weeks. The class are showing increased confidence with their sounds and applying this to their work.
It has been a very busy and exciting week, filled with creativity and lots of learning. Thank you for your continued support, we love sharing these special experiences with you!
I hope you all have a lovely February weekend.

Room 11 Sending lots of love
Room 11 got creative this afternoon making lots of different Valentines crafts and cards. We started off looking at some ideas on Pinterest and then chose what resources we needed to make the craft of our choice. It was really interesting seeing all the different ideas that everyone had and using their own creativity to come up with something unique.
We also loved our weekly dictation and chilli challenge with lots of us getting house points for full marks 🙂

Room 8
Hello from room 8!
I’m sure that you all know by now how much fun we had on our trip to Hampden last week. We started the day by walking to Newton train station and got on the train to Mount Florida. Once we arrived at Mount Florida station we met the lovely Suzie, who works for the charity Rail74, an amazing charity who has a main focus of supporting the delivery of community benefits though the medium of innovative projects within the surrounding communities of the rail stations and rail passengers. They very kindly funded our train adventure and gifted us with railway passports which I can’t wait to see the children get use out of! You can find more information about Rail74’s work on their website or through their twitter (@rail74crp).
Once we got to Hampden, we received football coaching, a museum tour and a stadium tour. We were absolutely exhausted by the time we had walked back to school!
Well done to every single child for the exceptional behaviour and manners shown on the school trip, we definitely displayed our school values and are PROUD!
Our Fortnight in Room 24

Last Week:
On Tuesday afternoon we had Mrs Reilly do drama/health and wellbeing with us. We got into groups and had to choose ‘What Would You Do?’ scenarios to act out from cards in a pile. These scenarios were about online safety, and were things that the police have had to deal with in the past. Things like someone you don’t know chatting to you online and asking you to meet up with them after school, or receiving a threatening message asking you to do something ‘or else.’ We talked about these after each group acted them out and discussed what we should do if it ever happens.
Ms Ryan & Ms White came from Uddingston Grammar to do a lesson with us about our dream high school. We had to write a story about what we would like in our dream high school, and who the teachers would be, what subjects there would be and who would be our friends.
Miss Thom came to visit us on Thursday. She’ll be coming in over the next few Thursdays and then will be in every day from the start of March, until the end of May.
On Friday Jude brought in some World War II memorabilia for our topic. His Great Grandpa fought in the War and we got to look at his medals, his uniform and his soldiers service and pay book! Jude also had a German soldier’s armband to show us, along with some German medals, some photos of German soldiers and a 1941 German copy of Hitler’s ‘Mein Kampf’ book! It was so cool to see all these things!
This Week:
We mixed together art and maths twice this week! We made Symmetry Monsters by writing our names normally and them writing them symmetrically on the other side of the paper. We then turned our names into monsters and aliens, trying hard to keep everything symmetrical! We were also using compasses and learning to draw circles with different radii and diameters. We used our skills to create a piece of repeated circles artwork. Most of us are still finishing the colouring in bit so we’ve only got a couple of photos to show so far.
We did more drama but with Miss O’Brien. We had to act out what parts of World War 2 would have been like, like if a bomb had dropped nearby. We got to show the rest of the class once we’d practised.
With Miss Napier, we made posters about how World War 2 started. We had to add information about the leaders of each country, who the allied and axis powers were and write a short paragraph explaining what led to the war starting.
In P.E, Miss Napier taught us a new game called ‘Rock, Paper, Scissors, Jump.’ Lots of us hadn’t played it before and it was so fun! The time went by really quickly because the next thing we knew, we had to go back inside for lunch!

Room 2 and 3
This week during P.E, Room 2 and Room 3 had a fantastic time coming together to learn and share something special. Room 2 took on the role of teachers and taught Room 3 The Grand Old Duke of York song and dance. It was wonderful to see the pupils working together and supporting one another.
Room 2 did an amazing job leading the activity. They confidently demonstrated the actions, helped explain the moves and sang the song clearly so everyone could follow along. Room 3 were great learners, giving the dance a go and joining in with lots of enthusiasm and smiles.
It was a fun and positive experience for both classes, building confidence, teamwork, and leadership skills. Well done to both Room 2 and Room 3 for such a successful and enjoyable P.E session.
On Tuesday 10th February, Room 2 and 3 will be going to Kelvingrove Art Gallery and Museum for their school trip. Please send your child to school with a packed lunch (unless stated otherwise) and an outdoor jacket on Tuesday. Children should bring their usual packed lunch, the same as they would on a normal school day as we have a busy and exciting schedule. We can’t wait to have lots of fun on our trip!
We hope you have a lovely weekend.
Room 2 and 3.
