Primary 3 have been using a range of spelling strategies to help them learn their common words. A favourite has been writing the word on your partner’s back and asking them to guess the word. Another has been writing a mnemonic to help remember the order of the letters. Learning the shape of the word, including discussing the tall and short letters has helped picture the words in their heads.
Primary 3 have thoroughly enjoyed exploring the traditional tale of The Three Billy Goats Gruff through drama. Look at these ferocious trolls and happy, confident goats as they retold the story through: still images, movement, voice production and creating a conscience alley. Children had to explore the conscience of the troll, will he eat the goats or won’t he? Such a hard decision!
We started our new Famous Scots IDL topic by researching the famous Scottish Artist Steven Brown. We looked at how he became famous and discussed what we thought of his paintings. Then we created our own bright animal image in Steven Brown’s style. We all chose our own media to use from oil pastels, pens or paint. We’re looking forward to finishing them this week and comparing them to Steven

The children had great fun dancing to The Grand Old Duke of York and taking part in party games for their Christmas Party. You all looked wonderful!
Primary 3 are learning about computers and coding. Today they made a non-technology code for their partner to follow. They had to get their partner from one cone to another by avoiding the obstacles in the way. They tested their code out by one partner being the computer and one being the coder. Afterwards we had lots of discussion about what worked in our codes and what changes we would
Here are Primary 3 showing us their new skills in volleyball. The children have been learning the overhead throw and underarm toss as well as getting into the ‘ready to play’ position. Fantastic work Primary 3!
Today Primary 3 carried out their practical science investigation to discover what might affect how quickly a solid dissolves in water. Each child chose their own variable which they wanted to investigate. Some chose to change the type of solid, others chose the amount of water and some chose to change the amount of solid. To make the test fair all the other variables had to stay the same. We
Pupils in P1-3 enjoyed their Halloween Disco. Look at their amazing costumes. Well done to the Parent Council for organising another fantastic event!
Primary three had a brilliant afternoon today learning how a solid can change into a liquid. The best part was holding a chocolate coin in our hands whilst we read a long poem about chocolate. We discovered how the heat from our hands had melted the solid chocolate turning it into melted chocolate, a liquid. Licking our hands afterwards was a real treat. Don’t worry mums and dads, we washed
