A busy week in in pr 5


We have been researching our local area. Here we are sharing results of our parent questionnaires to the rest of the class. We had to use eye contact and clear voices. We were even allowed to sit in the teacher’s chair!

After our ICT research, questionnaires and finding out about the best things about Coatbridge, we decided to put all of our information into leaflets! Don’t they look brilliant?

imageMaths has been a challenge this week!

We have been working with the four operations in lots of different sums. Β We were introduced to a longer way to multiply. We are gladly getting the hang of it!

We have started looking at the world of work. Part of this is to think about what we are good at. Our skills should hopefully help us to choose a career path as we continue through our education.

We wrote down three skills of our own and everyone walked around the room and ticked the one that they thought was our best skill.

It was great to see what people thought we were good at. A real confidence boost!

In a galaxy far far away…

This week in primary 4 we had a school trip to the Glasgow Science Centre’s Planetarium. It was great fun! We started the day by exploring our Universe in the workshop Passport to the Planets, learning all new facts about constellations and the planets, Mars, Earth and Jupiter. Our guide John was great and he was able to answer any questions we had about our Galaxy, the Milkyway.imageΒ  Β  Β Β image

After the workshop we had time to go and explore the rest of the Science Centre. There were different experiments on each floor and we had lots of fun whilst learning about them. We cannot wait to go back!!

Space and all things spooky…

This week we have been practising for our assembly which is next Friday at 2:00pm (we hope to see you there!) but, even though our minds are still on Spain, we have started to explore our new topic which is…The Solar System!

We we watched a video about our Solar System and practised our note taking skills…

 

 

Since it it was the Hallowe’en disco on Thursday, we decided to get a bit spooky in class to get us in the mood. Amid the spooky sounds and scary cobwebs we studied silhouettes and created our own haunted houses…

 

 

On Halloween we will add some colour to our spooky houses using chalk and oil pastels. We hope to scare (and impress) you then!

Paper Plate Pumpkins

This week in Primary 3 we have been busy with some Halloween crafts.

First we painted some paper plates orange and left them to dry overnight.

We then used sugar paper to cut and stick some scary faces on our pumpkins.

Miss Duffy also visited our class and showed us how to create some spooky spider’s web chalk pictures. View at your own risk!

We also made some scary masks which we were allowed to take home to finish if we wanted to. We’ve had a great time and can’t wait for Monday!

‘Our School’ – Episode One

In a brand new series, some Primary 5 children will be taking you on a guided tour of our school. Today, we will be taking you to our school oratory.

 

Our school oratory is a very special and holy place. If you look around, you can see a tabernacle and an altar. It is a very peaceful room where you can say a quiet prayer.

 

We took some photographs of our trip to this holy room and you can have a look at them below. Tune in next week for the next episode of ‘Our School’!

Minibeasts are everywhere!!!

P2/3 had a fantastic time on their school trip to the Botanic Gardens where they explored the area for different mini beasts and had a few close encounters with the wildlife!!

imageimageimageimage

Magnifying classes at the ready, the children explored high and low looking in the trees, leaves, and soil to see what they could find. We even managed to catch a few spiders, flys and bugs.

image image image image image image image image

The squirrels seemed very excited to see us around their habitat and popped over to say hello!

image image image image

Finally we had a go at charming the worms and even managed to charm a few out of the ground.

image image image image

What a fantastic day hunting for minibeasts :D!!

Primary 1 catch up…

This week we all took part in the Christmas card competition. Being very creative, we decided to paint the background of our card using lots of different colours. Afterwards, we cut out a snowman and added some detail…..we will post a picture next week when the winner has been announced.

image image imageAlso this week, we took part in a fun football session. Here we are, listening carefully to the coach and having a go at football.Β

When Friday arrived, we were pleased to see so many parents/carers coming in to read with us again at our stay and read sessions. This is week 4, so 2 more sessions to go. It has been very enjoyable for everyone.

I loved the illustrations in this book.
