A busy day in Primary 5.
Primary 5 enjoyed reinacting the lifeboat scenes from The Titanic. We used a freeze frame approach to show the improvisation. The class performed really well and had a great time.
In PE we took advantage of the sunshine and continued to develop our skills in possession games.

Earth Hour 2017
Last week, Primary 4 were hard at work researching “Earth Hour.” We used ‘i-Movie’ on the i-pads to create our own news reports to raise awareness of climate change.
Did you take part in Earth Hour on Saturday the 25th March 2017?
Here are some of our Confident Individuals explaining what Earth Hour is and how you can make a positive change to our world.

Primary 5/6 with great cooking skills
Primary 5/6 have had a great week making 3 different dishes for each of them to enjoy. On Monday it was macaroni cheese and some pupils were not too keen to make this as it had lots of cheese! Tuesday was far more popular as we made pancakes in order to support their learning of Shrove Tuesday. Needless to say, the option of the toppings made it all that little bit better.
Today, we got to further develop the skills of reading a recipe, cutting, grating, frying, shaping, timing and reducing a sauce. It was great to see the pupils working together and working through each process. A great week and we are all looking forward to our next block of cooking.
Well done P5/6!!

Sports Leadership Learning
This afternoon, pupils from Primaries 4, 5, 6 and 7 came to their next block of learning about Sports and the aspects that surround this.
They were learning about First Aid as this is an important aspects to understanding the associated accidents that lead to small and larger injuries. Today, the pupils had the opportunity to learn how to assess injuries, dress injuries to the body and the face, put the arm into a sling, put someone into the Recovery Position and also CPR. This required some problem solving but they all worked very well with each other and also with the resources and equipment that was there for them to use.
As you can see from the photographs, I think that they all consider themselves to be confident First Aiders!

The Wonders of Electricity
Primary 5/6 pupils have enjoyed learning about different aspects of electricity. As they progressed and deepened their knowledge of the impact that electricity has on their lives and how vital this is in today’s modern living, I taught the pupil’s about circuits and the journey that electricity takes to reach the circuit.
At the end of the block of teaching and learning, the class had the challenge of working out how to build a circuit. Some were to make a bulb light up, whilst others got a fan and a buzzer to work. Some progressed onto adding circuit breakers and even adding more to their circuit to make the bulb even brighter. What an achievement and I am so proud that they were highly motivated and each thoroughly enjoyed the time spent carrying this out.

To a Mouse, By Robert Burns
Today, Primary 4 celebrated the life of Robert Burns by learning to recite two verses of his famous poem, “To a Mouse” off by heart.
The children added fabulous expression to their voices and afterwards, completed a Metalinguistics task investigating some old Scottish words such as ‘sleekit.’
Great enthusiasm P4!
