Today we enjoyed our first outdoor PE session , learning some basic hockey skills.

 

 

 

 

 

 

 

 

 

 

 

 

Today Primary 6/7 designed a Rights Respecting agent. They created a “codename” a secret identity and a special spy power linked to rights.

Primary 6/7 will be taking part in a 4 week block of outdoor physical education every Friday from Friday 28th August. For this block of outdoor PE children will be asked to attend school on this day wearing a waterproof jacket, plain black or grey jogging bottoms, a school polo shirt and a school jumper.

Today primary 6/7 used mixed methods to create graffiti art. Firstly children used Lego blocks to print a brick wall. Once dry they blended warm and cold colours to create their name.

When combined the results are amazing!

Today Primary 6/7 were rounding 2 and 3 digit numbers to the nearest 10. Great job everyone. Next challenge is rounding to 100.

 

 

 

 

 

 

 

 

 

 

 

 

Today Primary 6/7 were partitioning 5 digit numbers and identifying the value of different numbers. We played some active games to help us order numbers and creating unique numbers.

Today Primary 6/7 looked at some long-standing Scottish traditions. We explored tartans and how they link to Highland clans. As well as special events such as the Burns’ supper, the Highland Games, the Military Tattoo and the Edinburgh festival.

We found a fun fact!  Many tourists visiting Scotland are tricked into thinking the haggis is a little 3 legged animal by tour guides. So we designed some “haggis catchers” to help in the haggis hunt!

Today Primary 6/7 created some mask art. The mask was hiding out personalities, skill and abilities and  some of our favourite things to do.

Today Primary 6/7B worked very hard in their language lesson. They identified the correct connectives, worked on handwriting joins and learned some interesting facts about Scotland.

What a great start we’ve had in Primary 6/7B. The children have been amazing and it’s been fabulous to finally meet them. We are ready to have an amazing year.
