November Reflection

We have had a very hard-working month as we wrapped up as Autumn came to an end.  We have still been spending lots of time outdoors and posted lots of photos on Twitter of us drawing amazing Fireworks in the playground.

We celebrated Book Week Scotland and the Headteacher of Mossend Primary School sent a very special video to us of her reading a story especially for our class.  We then wrote her Thank You letters telling her all about our favourite part of the book.

In Maths, we have concentrated lots of time on revising our knowledge of 2D shape.  We looked at the properties of a range of shapes and discussed edges and corners in order to identify triangles and quadrilaterals.  We are now focussing on all aspects of time from days/months/seasons to telling the time on the hour and half hour.  It would really help if you could talk about time at home as the children need lots of reinforcement of this important topic.

A great treat for P3 for 4 weeks is that we have a visiting PE specialist from Active Schools coming in to deliver outdoor activities every Tuesday.  Keep an eye on the school Twitter page for lots of photos.

As you will understand, December will be super busy in school with lots of lovely treats and activities planned from our virtual pantomime, Christmas Lunch, Christmas Jumper Day and Class parties.  Keep an eye on Twitter and make sure you keep a copy of this month’s newsletter handy for important dates.
