Scottish Event 2017

The pupils and staff of Chapelgreen Primary gave a great performance today.  They shared their learning about Scottish Literature, Songs and Poems.  P1-3 demonstrated the skills they had been learning in music by using a variety of instruments to keep the beat to the Song “Coulter’s Candy”.  P4/5 had a Burn’s Singing and Poetry Recital Competition and the winners received a huge round of applause.  P6/7 had been writing poetry and learning about chants which they demonstrated most effectively.  They also applied their learning to the context of “The Parable of the Sower” and used mime to share the message within this.  Please take a look at some of the photographs from the presentation.

Our pupils wowed their audience by demonstrating their Scottish Dancing.  P1-3 did a fantastic job of the “St Bernard’s Waltz”.  While P4/5 showed us the ‘Toe and Heel’ step.  Here is one of the chants from P6/7.

 

Working Together at the Early Level

What an exciting morning Primary 1 and the Nursery children had today.  Primary 1 visited the nursery to share with Mrs Henderson what they have been learning in Primary 1.  The nursery children visited Room 2 to meet Mrs Crockett.  They were able to show Mrs Crockett how they can write their names and recognise the numbers to 10.  Well done!  Thank you to the Primary 2 and 3 children who helped the nursery children.
