Hello from Primary 6/7
We had a great start to the week, on Tuesday the Primary 7 children attended the cinema to see ‘X Men’ and Primary 6 went on Wednesday to see a French film, ‘Zarafa’. Both films were thoroughly enjoyed by the children, this may be partly due to all the treats they got to bring to enjoy during the film!
We have been looking at the genre of report writing as well as Scottish politics. We incorporated these within our taught writing lesson and created a report on Nicola Sturgeon, our First Minister. Some of the children created very detailed and interesting reports which highlighted her early years and her role in politics. This is important as we have a MSP visiting us at the start of December to talk about his role as well as Scottish Parliament where we will learn more about the role of Holyrood.
As part of our Scotland topic, we have been learning about Scottish saints such as St Margaret and St David. Their lives were very interesting and these were indeed two saints to look up to for the good and selfless things they did in their lives. Definitely figures to look up to!
We are all looking forward to our long weekend, as we won’t be in on Monday (well the teachers will!) Hope everyone has a lovely weekend.
