This week we have managed to fit quite a lot of learning in, around our school shows.

In maths we have continued to focus on Data Handling using frequency charts and graphs to read and record data. We have also been learning about; mean, median, mode and range.

In literacy we have been using media, specifically News Round to record information for our written tasks. We are also continuing to use non fiction texts in class.

**** Reminder to all pupils**** bring in the home reader that you told me about as we will be using this for a writing activity next week in class.

We have begun to explore the theme of “A Healthy Lifestyle” as part of our Health and Wellbeing programme. We are starting by exploring a balanced diet.

Primary 7 gave fantastic performances at all of our school shows. Everyone was very impressed by our french song, everyone worked very hard to learn and perfect the words.

Our class Dojo winner this week is Kirsty McKenzie.

Our Four Capacities certificate was awarded to Emma McMurray for being a Responsible Citizen.

Well done to both these pupils, they are showing a great example as senior pupils.

My Lucky Charm

It makes me think of Primary 1

At my Auntie’s house

A small violet coloured Elephant

I was surprised she gave it to Me!

It’s always in my bag

I never take it out

I have had it from P1 to P7

It’s as happy and lucky as a rainbow

The Elephant is my lucky charm

My Best Friend

In the snow we play all day

my best friend & I drink hot chocolate all day

We warmed up by the fire for far to long

We stayed up all night long

My friend gave me a present

It was as heavy as a rock

It was so cold I could not hold it any more

When i see it I think of my friend

I am proud of the present

I smile when I see it

every day & night

My Best Friend

In the snow we played all day

My best friend and I on Christmas day

We wanted to stay

But it was kind of chilly

We thought that’s a wee bit silly

In my house it was so much fun

But we wanted to see the sun

We were 4 years old

It was kind of cold

The snowflakes falling down like it was magic

We fell down on the ice that was tragic

But at the end we were over the moon

She went home and I shouted “I Hope To See You Soon .”
