Today, the boys and girls researched and discussed possible crafts to make and sell at the Christmas Fayre at the end of November. Tomorrow in class, we will settle on which idea to go with and begin making, pricing and advertising for the big day!

P4 FOOTBALL COACH
Primary 4 enjoyed another input from the football coach this afternoon! ⚽
P4 AUTUMN CREATIONS
We went out to the gardens to clear up some of the fallen leaves but before doing so, we made some fabulous creations!
P4 Football Coach
Today we were lucky enough to have a football coach to teach us during gym time. Cammy the coach taught us some dribbling and shooting skills and we built upon our team-work skills from last term by taking part in a team football game.
P4 EMOTION ARTWORK
In Primary 4, we are learning about emotions. We learned about the variety of emotions that can be experienced and that our emotions not only affect us, but also those around us. We created some related artwork.
P4 Diacritical Marking
We practised the spelling strategy of diacritical marking on the teacher whiteboard this morning.
P4 Ancient Egyptian Timeline
The boys and girls have been working co-operatively in groups to research different time periods during the Egyptian era to make fact files. They will then use these to create a chronological class timeline. (That means putting the events in time order!)
P4 Garden Maintenance
Primary 4 were hard at work this afternoon in the school gardens preparing them for the winter months. In their garden groups, the boys and girls weeded the vegetable patches, tidied and weeded the herb beds, collected litter and put rotten fruit from under the fruit trees to good use in the compost bin. Great work everyone!
P4 Fact Families
Primary 4 were focusing on forming fact families and learning about the commutative aspect of addition and the inverse relationship between addition and subtraction.
Our four stations in maths include;
Meet the Teacher, At Your Seat, Technology and Hands On. We enjoy learning in different ways!
Focus on Food / Fairtrade Group
Today was our first meeting of the Focus on Food / Fairtrade Leadership committee group. We had a group discussion about what we want the group to achieve this year and voted for 3 aims for the year. Some children researched fairtrade snacks for a possible Fairtrade tuckshop while others created a ‘Courgette Loaf Cake’ using produce from our garden in the Learning Kitchen. We can’t wait until our next session!
