Primary 7 dressed up and enjoyed lots of fun number activities today for NSPCC Number Day. Our favourite activity was Number Spelling, where we worked out the numerical value of our names using a telephone keypad!

Today is the day these Primary 7’s beat their best ever score! Excellent effort!

Primary 7 used the iPads and non-fiction texts to research the life of Queen Victoria. We used our research to write very informative reports about the second longest reigning queen of Great Britain.

P7 had a tasty Burns Supper to celebrate Robert Burns’ Day. We had haggis, neeps, tatties, shortbread, tablet and even some (diet) irn-bru… It was delicious!

P7 have been practising their spelling rule words using lots of fun spelling tasks. Our favourites this week were Glitter Spelling  (it was very messy!), Spelling Hangman and ICT whiteboard spelling.

This week P7 looked at Christmas traditions around the world. In pairs we used the iPads to research what Christmas is like in different countries. Did you know that in Japan children go to school on Christmas day ?!

This week P7 started their new novel studies. We discussed prior knowledge and predictions with our groups, and read the first chapters. All groups are LOVING their new books!

Primary 7 had a great day competing at the Sportshall Athletics competition. We took part in track and field events and cheered each other on all day!

Primary 7 are all set for our Christmas Fayre tomorrow. Come along  and buy some of our fabulous candles!

Primary 7 used Numicon and open number lines to complete some tricky subtraction sums.
