This week we enjoyed making decisions to help us develop skills for games like badminton, tennis and volley ball. I am delighted that 3 children from our class attended a badminton club on Tuseday night!

Primary 3 working hard!
The Rainforest
The children learned all about the layers of the rainforest. We can name and identify all the layers with confidence. We will be learning about the animals who live in each layer.
Badminton
The class had fun using the net for the first time today. A lot of the children found it challenging to hit the shuttlecock over the net but they know that with lots of practise they will get better!
Portraits
The children learned how to draw a face and we chose a friend to draw. The class had lots of fun drawing their friend. Some of the drawings were so good that we could identify who they were.
Multiplication
The children enjoyed using pasta shapes to help them find out the answers to the 4 times table.
Net and wall games fun in p1!
Today p1a were developing skills to help them in a range of different net games, like tennis and badminton. I was very impressed by the children’s resilience and have a go attitude. They also used their concentration skills to send and receive a ball accurately.
P5 Target Games
In primary 5 we have been working on our target games. We played a hockey game, a bowling game and a bean-bag throwing game. The way we played it was we set cones and had to dribble a ball with a hockey stick around the cones. We then had to shoot at the goals as our target. For the bowling we set up five bowling pins on each side we played in two teams. The first team to knock down all the other teams bowling pins won! And, last but not least, the bean-bag throwing. If you managed to throw your bean bag into the first set of cones you got 10 points, the second set of cones you got 20, and the last set of cones you got 30 points. If it slid past all the cones you got 0!

Swimming at the Tryst
P5 have had fun swimming and doing PE at the Tryst.
JA- I really liked when we got to swim on our backs and kick our legs.
Erin L and Macie- We really enjoyed the gym because we were learning handball skills and at the end we will get to play a game of handball.
Erin M and Chloe- It was really fun when we were swimming on our back. We are learning to do back stroke and front crawl.
P5 want to say thank you and that they really appreciate the opportunity to go swimming! We are so lucky!
Possession skills in Primary 3
Primary 3 worked very hard during PE this week. We are learning about possession games and this week we focused on football. Next week we will be learning about the different ways we can use direction to keep possession of the ball. Well done primary 3! Keep up the wonderful hard work!
Social Dancing at Chryston High School
This week we started work on dancing. We learned the Flying Scotsman, the Virginia Reel and then enjoyed some party dances.
Gymnastics at Chryston
Over the last couple of weeks P7 have been practising gymnastics skills at Chryston High School. We have been working on creating balances using different numbers of people. We had a lot of fun experiencing new things.
