Mr Potato Head was the first toy ever to have its own TV advert.  It has become so popular over the last 50 years that there are so many different versions of it.  You can get superheroes, Star Wars themed, Indiana Jones and even Elvis.  What or who do you think would make a great Mr or Mrs Potato Head? Reply to this post with your idea.  It may be the one you created in class or a different idea.

Have a sneak peak at our Christmas artwork.  It will be on display in the hall for the Nativity assembly.

We had great fun on Friday during treat time using the Kapla bricks to see who could build the biggest tower.  It was very competitive and lots of fun.

Hi everyone, I have attached a copy of our shared plan from now until Feb/ March.  Our class IDL theme will be the Romans and then the Easter Story as our P5 pupils will be performing this at our closing service.

In numeracy we are finishing 2D and 3D shape and have started money in the run up to Christmas.  We will then be aiming to complete multiplication, Time and start division by the end of the next block.

P54 shared plan

During our Art time last week we looked at angry faces through the famous painting ‘The Scream’ by Edvard Munch.  We had a go at our own versions using paint blowing.

We have started investigating properties of 3D shapes using straws to build structures.  We started with cubes and cuboids and then moved on to some people building pentagonal prisms and octahedrons.

P4/5 have  been  working hard on their writing this morning.  We were writing about the different parts of the ear and how it works.

We were looking at plugs today and had a go at rewiring them.  We had to use really small screwdrivers just like scientists and engineers who need to make really small parts for computers.  It was good fun but challenging!

We were learning about coordinates today.  We used battleships as a fun way to learn.

We had a great time yesterday looking around the school allotment site and harvesting some of our produce.  We had to listen very carefully as we had a quiz at the end of our tour.  We would like to say a big thank you to Mrs Raeburn for organising the visit and producing the quiz- we really enjoyed ourselves.
