Christmas Crafts in Primary 3
Busy, busy children today in Primary 3. We were making Christmas decorations for Saturday and the children coped really well with a tricky activity. We used cotton buds to make a snowflake then we painted them using glitter paint then added some little jewels to make them sparkly. Tomorrow we will cut them out and add some Christmas ribbon. Super effort today!

Phonics in Primary 3
This spelling group were learning about the phoneme ‘aw’. We read the phoneme story to help us find new words containing the phoneme. The children then used rhyming words to help them find more words. Well done ! You worked very hard.
This spelling group were learning about the phoneme ‘ea’ as in the word meat. They used Doodlebuddy on the iPads to write their new words. This group were able to write many words in different, colourful ways using the iPads. The children came up with many words and they made more by adding ‘ed’ and ‘ing’.
Some children also moved onto practising their common words. Well done everyone. Keep up this fantastic work.
