Monday 8th October 2018

Primary 2/3 have had a busy few weeks and have been working hard in literacy, numeracy and on Autumn themed activities.

The children are working hard with their partners on phoneme and spelling tasks and are coping very well with reading comprehension tasks.

In numeracy, the children are learning lots of different ways to add and are using a range of active learning activities to work out sums and solve problems.

They are currently using newspapers to learn about how to structure a report based on their learning about ‘hedgehogs’ and the threats that endanger them.

P2/3 are thoroughly enjoying all things Autumn and created squirrels, hedgehogs and owls using leaf art. They children were able to write a number of facts about their chosen animal and demonstrated excellent listening skills!

Fantastic work, P2/3!

Creating Timelines

Today we discussed the importance of using timelines to understand history. We improved our familiarity with the ideas of BC and AD, and used this information to build our own timelines for our topic; The Romans.

MacMIllan Coffee Morning

Primary 7 have done an amazing job of organising and running a coffee morning. Can we thank all parents and carers who sent in donations and those who attended our event. Between both schools there was over £750 raised so far, which will help an amazing cause.

We organised and ran a bake sale this morning that raised over £100, it was a huge success!

Primary 2 Fairyland Music Pictures

As part of our Fairyland topic we have been exploring lots of fairy tales, looking at the different settings, characters and story lines in each tale. This week we had a think about how we could use musical instruments to accompany the story of ‘Jack and the Beanstalk’ e.g. making the giant’s footsteps, what would magic beans sound like, which instruments could we use to show to mood of the characters.

We had lots of fun doing this and and next week we will put all of our ideas together to create music for our storyline.
