Literacy in P1
Category Archives: * Successful learner
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.
Star Writers
I had the very difficult job of choosing this week’s Star Writers! Well done Calum, Lily, Sophie H and Adam.
P3 & P4 Awesome Athletics
These great classes have been trying hard to perfect their athletics skills in P.E. They have been having a go at javelin, shotput, long jump, relay, sprint and hurdles.
P2 have been learning to copy, continue and describe simple patterns. They also used a variety of media to create their own patterns.
P4 MENTAL MONEY
Primary 4 have been learning how to add money values mentally during maths time. We used a variety of ways to help us improve, including a money game on the Smartboard and a coin puzzle game. We love learning in different ways!
Target and Central Net Games
P1 are working hard to develop skills in sending equipment to help them with target and central net games.
What’s the Time P1?
Look at how well P1 are concentrating when learning all about telling the time.
P1 also worked very hard to blend, read and write ch words today.
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.
