Primary 1 are learning about Addition in Maths.  Active games help us to problem solve and use different strategies in new learning contexts.  We love playing the “Double or half it” game by throwing the correct beanbag into the cup, making “spider doubles” using the pegs, using the “addition machine” and playing addition games on the Smart Board.  In Maths, we work co-operatively and independently to develop our mathematical skills.

Primary 1 have been learning how to dribble and control the football.

Primary 1 enjoyed playing “Tunnel Tig” to practise moving into a space.

Primary 1 and Primary 1/2 worked together to make Scottish porridge.  We used the “bridge” knife technique to cut some bananas and Scottish strawberries for our porridge.  It was delicious!

This week Primary 5 have been learning to use the open number line to subtract. This can be easier for some people who find the column method tricky when they have to borrow. It can sometimes take a little bit longer to get the answer but it works for us. We have enjoyed Maths this week.

We love playing the Fruit Salad game.  This week we learned how to travel around the room in different ways and make different shapes with our bodies.

We rounded numbers up to 100 to the nearest 10.  We did this using rounding cups, a rounding race game and a smartboard dart game.

This week, we learned some French!  We can say hello, tell you our name and ask you what your name is.  We also know 1, 2, 3.  Bonjour!  Je m’appelle _________.  Et toi?

Primary 2 love practising their phoneme and common words in different ways.  This week we used the iPads to write them.

Primary One have been learning about rainbows as part of our Weather I.D.L. Theme.  We created our own rainbows using chalk during Outdoor Learning this week.

Primary One learned about Dark Night Dangers this week.  They now know more about ‘Firework Safety’, ‘Stranger Danger’ and ‘Be Bright, Be Seen’.
