Primary 5/4 are enjoying some active learning games to reinforce their knowledge on telling the time. 
Primary 7 topic
Primary 7 have already started work on their new topic – World War 2. They have started reading their novel, Carrie’s war and yesterday they completed their own front cover for the book after reading the blurb and discussing what the novel was about. Here are all the different varieties created.
This is morning we completed some research on why WW2 started and how Britain recruited people for the army. We have been creating propaganda posters this afternoon, trying to encourage people to fight for their country.
P6/5 Jacobite Topic
For homework, we made the kind of weapons that the Jacobites would have used during the rebellion. Look at how good they are!
P7 Visit St Maurice’s
Today Primary 7 visited the School of Sport in St Maurice’s. They had taster sessions in basketball and rugby. They were mixed with the children from St Helen’s and St Michael’s so this gave them an opportunity to make some new friends before going to high school in August.
Some of our class already know what they will be signing up for in S1!
P6/5 Maths: Ideas of Certainty and Chance
Hi again!
Have a look and see how well we have been doing in Maths this week. We can work hour how likely or unlikely it is for events to happen.
P7 Fashion show rehearsals
Primary 7 have been working extremely hard last week and today rehearsing for the Fashion Show in St Maurice’s tomorrow night. Our theme is the 90’s and we have got some great outfits and some dance routines to show off tomorrow!
Here are a few pictures of the children rehearsing.
Primary 5/4 Mini Egg Investigators
Primary 5/4 had a busy morning solving problems all about Mini Eggs. They were investigating if all packets contained the same amount of eggs and had the same colours. They were working together to estimate and count, sort and classify, add and subtract and record information using a tally chart and bar graph. They all worked well together and had a fun morning carrying out the investigation. 
St Patrick’s Day 2016 – P5
P4 Library Visit
Primary 4 visited Kilsyth Library this week to listen to an author talk about his series of books.
The author’s name was David MacPhail and he spoke to us about his books entitled “Thorfinn The Nicest Viking”.
We learned a little about Vikings, Ancient Scotland and what it is like to be an author.
The children also took the opportunity to pitch some ideas for David’s next book!
P7 projects
Today we had the final presentations for our 90’s projects. Yet again they were very informative and it was clear the children put a lot of time and effort into their presentations. Some even added music!
We are hoping to use some of our presentations in our fashion show in St Maurice’s at the end of the month.
