It’s been as busy as Santa’s Workshop here in P6 as we complete our Christmas Books in preparation for next week’s Book Launch.
We have been improving our work by editing and proof-reading to check for sense, punctuation and spelling. We have also been adding or changing words to enhance our stories and we have been coming up with some excellent similes and metaphors to make our writing that little bit more special…
Invitations have now gone out for next week’s Book Launch which will take place in our beautiful new libraryĀ on Wednesday atĀ 2:00pm. Please come along, if you can, to hear about our learning journey and, of course, sample our stories and some sweet treats! We look forward to seeing you there!

This week, we studied some of the beautiful Christmas decorations that have sprung up around the school . We saw some incredible class wall displays. These displays made very interesting use of glitter and fake snow to create really striking visual effects. We also noticed that a lot of classes have their own Christmas trees in their classrooms. Some teachers are very proud of these trees… Finally, we noticed that the stage has been decorated as well. We have been practicing for all of our school Christmas shows and our school stage is the perfect setting for these performances.
See you next time!

The past few weeks we have super busy in p4 doing lots of different activities. A couple of weeks ago we had David the fireman coming in to talk about fire safety and how he makes a difference within the community. We learned so much and are grateful for David coming in to visit.Ā

We we were so excited and we asked lots of interesting questions. David even let us try on the fire brigades uniform to show what equipment he needs to protect himself. It was extremely heavy.

David also taught us what we should do if there is a fire within the house. We had to use our big loud voices to shout on him and tell him which room we were in. He came to our rescue and demonstrated a fire man’s lift!!
Also we have been doing some art in class and learning all about the artist George Seurat. He is famous for creating the art style pointillism and using dots to create fantastic pieces of Ā art. We thought we could try it for ourselves by using an under water theme. Check out some of our fantastic pieces.

Today, our group went to the Digital Learning Suite. We found a lot of interesting resources!
In this area of our school, you can find lots of computers. There are also posters on the wall. These posters tell you how to stay safe when using the computer. We learned that you are not able to bring food or drink into this room.Ā You can use these computer to research new topics. We like this room because you can create interesting documents. We also liked the fact that you can save important information to your computer.
Thank you for looking and stayed tuned for the next episode of ‘Our School’.
See you soon!

The last few weeks have been very busy in our class. We have been learning all about shapes and positions in maths and we can use lots of new vocabulary to describe where an object is. In literacy we have been using nouns, verbs and adjectives and we know how to make our sentences more interesting. We have also been enjoying our topic called ‘when gran was a girl’ and we loved our trip to Summerlee. We found out about toys from the past and had lots of fun trying out all of the things our grans might have played with. At the end of the workshop we made our ownĀ Christmas toy which we got to take home!
